A Short History of Ireland
No country’s history has been more obscured by prejudice and emotion than Ireland’s. By untangling the complex threads from St. Patrick’s mission onwards, A Short History of Ireland (originally published in 1952, reissuing the sixth edition of 1979) traces Ireland’s evolution through the 1970s and makes her modern history intelligible. This book will be a valuable resource for students and researchers of history.

Burke, Ireland and the Empire
Burke was born and educated in Ireland; but he moved to London when he was little more than twenty years of age and he made his career and his reputation in England. Though he continued throughout life to take an active interest in the affairs of his native country, there is nothing national, let alone nationalist about the policies he advocated for Ireland. Indeed, if we are to describe Burke as in any sense a ‘nationalist’ then he was an Englis…

Northern Ireland
The Irish Viceroyalty in the Restoration Period
In 1660 someone transcribed into the ‘Town Book’ of Belfast a copy of ‘Verses presented to General Monck’: Advance, George Monck, and Monck St George shall be, England's restorer to its liberty, Scotland's protector, Ireland's president, Reducing all to a free parliament; And if thou dost intend the other thing, Go on, and all shall cry God save the king
The Making of Modern Ireland
The publication in 1965 of J.C. Beckett's The Making of Modern Ireland was a milestone in the modern study of Irish history. This excellent book supersedes all previous histories of modern Ireland ...admirably constructed and written with clarity and economy which carry the narrative unflaggingly through to the end. (New Statesman). Technically this book is a masterly achievement...The presentation is not only learned but cool, objective, unimpas…

XXII. Gladstone, Queen Victoria, and the Disestablishment of the Irish Church, 1868—9
On 23 January 1869 Gladstone visited Queen Victoria at Osborne and presented two papers relating to the proposed disestablishment of the Church of Ireland, ‘one of them on the general policy and effect of the measure, the other a dry recital of the purport of what would be the leading clauses of a bill’. The memorandum here presented is the former of these papers. Two copies of it are known, one in the Royal Archives at Windsor (D 25/6), the othe…
William King's Administration of the Diocese of Derry, 1691–1703
The see of Derry was (until the disestablishment of the church) one of the richest in Ireland, and the success of King William's forces in the north not unnaturally aroused some speculation about the next occupant. It is true that when the siege of Derry was raised Bishop Hopkins was still alive, but his unpopular action in opposing resistance to James's army no doubt helped to persuade the king's ecclesiastical advisers that his health was unequ…
The Government and the Church of Ireland under William III and Anne
The difficulties and problems which the revolution of 1688 presented to people of tender conscience were, in England, smoothed over and covered by circumstances. The king’s flight left the tories free to frame, at least for their own consumption, a theory which secured to them the benefits of revolution without the sin of rebellion. The anglican church itself, than which no institution had more openly maintained the doctrine of non-resistance, fo…

Anglo-Irish constitutional relations in the later eighteenth century
Few periods of Irish history have been more extensively written about than the later eighteenth century: a mere list of books and papers dealing with the Volunteer movement, ‘Grattan's parliament’, the insurrection of 1798 and the legislative union of 1800 would make up a moderate-sized volume. Most of these writings are concerned, directly or indirectly, with the constitutional relationship between Ireland and Great Britain. Indeed, it might be …
