Catholics of Consequence
For as far back as school registers can take us, the most prestigious education available to any Irish child was to be found outside Ireland. Catholics of Consequence traces, for the first time, the transnational education, careers, and lives of more than two thousand Irish boys and girls who attended Catholic schools in England, France, Belgium, and elsewhere in the second half of the nineteenth century. There was a long tradition of Irish Anglicans, Protestants, and Catholics sending their children abroad for the majority of their formative years. However, as the cultural nationalism of the Irish revival took root at the end of the nineteenth century, Irish Catholics who sent their childre...
Serving a City
"The English Market, Ireland's most famous food emporium, has been serving the city of Cork since 1788. It has stubbornly survived revolution and war, fire and famine, depression and boom, changing tastes and intensifying competition, and a rapidly developing food and retail environment." "The story of the market is in many ways the story of Cork. Capturing the tastes and smells of this central part of Cork life, Serving a City is fully illustrated, featuring images of the market, past and present - its architecture, stallholders, customers and products."--BOOK JACKET.

The Country Cooking of Ireland
The acclaimed food and travel writer brings to life the people, countryside, and delicious food of Ireland in this James Beard Award–winning cookbook. Fast emerging as one of the world’s hottest culinary destinations, Ireland is a country of small farms, artisanal bakers, cheese makers, and butteries.

Rich with stories of the food and people who make Ireland a wonderful place to eat, and laced with charming snippets of song, folklore, and poetry, The Country Cooking of Ireland ushers in a new understanding of Irish food.
Utter Disloyalist
Tadhg Barry was the last high-profile victim of the crown forces during the Irish War of Independence. A veteran republican, trade unionist, journalist, poet, GAA official and alderman on Cork Corporation, he was shot dead in Ballykinlar internment camp on 15 November 1921. Barry's tragic death was a huge, but subsequently largely forgotten, event in Ireland. Dublin came to a standstill as a quarter of a million people lined the streets and the IRA had its last full mobilisation before the Treaty split. The funeral in Cork echoed those of Barry's comrades, the martyred lord mayors Tomás MacCurtain and Terence MacSwiney. The Anglo-Irish Treaty was signed three weeks later, all internees were...

An Economic History of Ireland Since Independence
This book provides a cogent summary of the economic history of the Irish Free State/Republic of Ireland. It takes the Irish story from the 1920s right through to the present, providing an excellent case study of one of many European states which obtained independence during and after the First World War. The book covers the transition to protectionism and import substitution between the 1930s and the 1950s and the second major transition to trade liberalisation from the 1960s. In a wider European context, the Irish experience since EEC entry in 1973 was the most extreme European example of the achievement of industrialisation through foreign direct investment. The eager adoption of successive governments in recent decades of a neo-liberal economic model, more particularly de-regulation in banking and construction, has recently led the Republic of Ireland to the most extreme economic crash of any western society since the Great Depression.
