    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. To tie in with the 100 year anniversary of The Great Gatsby, Gatsby: Death of an Irishman delivers a compelling and new insight into the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the genesis of The Great Gatsby.Fitzgerald once told a friend that 'Gatsby started as one man I knew and then changed into myself.' Jay Gatsby's story is one of aspiration and reinvention, so was Fitzgerald's. The book shows how Fitzgerald dramatized the most powerful emotional experiences of his own life in the novel; from his childhood in the Midwest, Ivy League education at Princeton, literary success in New York, partying on Long Island, and marital struggles on the French Riviera.Underpinning Scott's brilliant, but turbulent, life was his complex, evolving and surprising relationship with his Irish heritage. Scott's journey went from childhood shame in St. Paul at being 'common' Irish to a patriotic immersion in Irish literature and revolutionary politics at Princeton. But the shame never went away, reinforced when the poor boy found he could not marry the rich girl. He tried to escape it; first through his imagination as a boy, and then through self-invention as a young man, then in his writing, and throughout his adult life in alcohol. Gatsby: Death of an Irishman is a fresh and compelling insight into the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the genesis of his most iconic character.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. On the dramatic night of 5-6 December 1921, Irish Delegates at Downing Street signed an agreement for a treaty to end the War of Independence and to create a new Irish state. This is the story of that fraught midnight deal, and of the events and people that lay behind it. The story is told from original sources and eyewitness accounts, and brings to life the Treaty that sparked a Civil War but made modern Ireland.Irish negotiators were under great pressure, caught between an ultimatum from Prime Minister Lloyd George to sign or face outright war, and a refusal by the President of Dail Eireann, Eamon de Valera, to lead them in London. For two months Arthur Griffith, Michael Collins, and three other delegates faced some of the most powerful men in the British Empire, including Winston Churchill and Austen Chamberlain. Kenny turns a spotlight on the key issues and the problems they faced. On the dramatic night of 5-6 December 1921, Irish Delegates at Downing Street signed an agreement for a treaty to end the War of Independence and to create a new Irish state.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The city of Galway has a rich body of historic buildings that date from its establishment in the thirteenth century to the present day. The city is positioned on the estuary of the River Corrib where it enters Galway Bay on the west coast of Ireland. It was initially founded by the Norman Richard de Burgo, who chose to build his castle here around 1220, and, despite Gaelic opposition, a Norman urban settlement had became permanently established by 1270. Shortly afterwards, work began on the defense of the settlement by a town wall that enclosed around eleven hectares, and work began on forming riverside quays. Inside the walls the town was laid out in an irregular street grid that included Market Street, Shop Street, Middle Street, St Augustine Street, Abbeygate Street and Cross Street, all lined with closely packed medieval houses, with the parish church of St Nicholas in a central position. A number of religious orders, such as the Augustinians, Franciscans and Dominicans, established houses outside the walls. This highly illustrated work explores that heritage through the medieval, Victorian and Georgian periods. Galway, established in the 13th century, has a rich historic body of buildings. The town was defended by a wall enclosing 11 hectares with riverside quays. Medieval houses lined streets like Market, Shop, Middle, and Cross Street. The book explores this heritage in the medieval, Victorian, and Georgian periods. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

    Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Victorian Ireland was global champion of threatening letters. This book reveals the murky world where tens of thousands of these letters and notices were nailed to barn doors or sent by penny post, intimidating, giving 'fair warning' and terrorizing the recipients. These victims were sometimes landlords, land agents, and land grabbers. Equally, they could be small farmers disputing land occupancy with neighbors.This book examines the nature, extent, and context of this unusual trend. It investigates who sent threatening letters and why they sent them. It also delves into who received such unwelcome correspondence and what action they took, giving new insights particularly into 19th-century rural Ireland.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. What was achieved by the Free State during the Irish Civil War was remarkable. Within a period of less than a year they raised and equipped a standing National Army of nearly 60,000 soldiers, defeating the anti-Treaty elements of the IRA. Using the counterinsurgency framework of Clear-Hold-Build, the author examines, analyzes and explains how the Free State managed to attain this remarkable achievement.Outnumbered at the start of the fighting, the Free State overcame an IRA insurgency by utilizing a number of key concepts that will be explained throughout this thesis. These concepts include the combination of kinetic clearance operations and 'Good Governance' stability actions. They also include; the use of locally recruited soldiers combined with experienced Irish veterans from World War I; the ability to generate, train and equip a new standing National Army to counter and gain combat power over the IRA; the capacity to become an adaptive learning organization, to reform, reorganize and reconsolidate against IRA tactical gains; and finally the ability to foster trust with the local population, enhancing the information sharing nexus and undermining the IRA cause. All of these concepts will be explained and examined through analyzing the successful counterinsurgency campaign executed by the Free State during the Irish Civil War.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Gerald Boland (Gear id Beol in) Irish militant revolutionary, politician and statesman, has until now ranked amongst the forgotten figures of modern Irish history. This book addresses this historical imbalance. Boland's life story offers readers an insight into the birth and subsequent development of the modern Ireland. From a humble working-class family, steeped in the Irish Republican tradition, Boland played an active role in the Irish Revolution and subsequently was at the forefront of political life in the nascent years of the Irish Free State, first as a Sinn F in elected representative and thereafter within Fianna F il. Boland's story thus offers readers a personal insight into many of the major military and political events which helped shape modern Ireland over the duration of his lifetime (1885-1973).Importantly, this biographical study provides readers with a critical examination regarding Gerald Boland's military adventures, political maneuvers and significantly his forgotten role as one of Ireland's eminent state builders. The picture that is painted is of a patriotic adolescent emerging to become a strong-willed militant young man turned politician and later respected (and sometimes feared) government minister. The Irish militant revolutionary, politician and statesman Gerald Boland ranks amongst the most important yet neglected figures of modern Irish history. Boland's life offers an insight into the birth and subsequent development of modern Ireland. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown is known for its incredible diversity in geography, socio-economic status, industries, religion and occupations. From coastal areas to modern suburbs, sparsely-populated uplands, and agricultural regions, the county showcases various ways of life. It encompasses practically every type of occupation and identity found on the island of Ireland.Despite this diversity, the voices of ordinary people have often been overlooked in historical accounts. The narratives of the gentry and wealthy families have been prioritized and recorded, while ordinary people's stories have gone unheard. This is a common pattern worldwide, where those with bigger public profiles are more likely to be written about in the media. Wealthy individuals tend to live in architecturally important homes that become historical landmarks and attract attention, while the lives of those with modest incomes are often forgotten.To rectify this imbalance, it is essential to talk to people and gather their memories and stories passed down in families and communities. This vital work by author and oral historian Deirdre Nuttall attempts to do just that, shedding light on the lives of the less well-connected and bringing a more comprehensive understanding of the rich history of Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. During the Irish War of Independence, the British and the Irish sides often reflected one another. Both the Irish and the British did well in some areas, and were deficient in others. But both sides used terror - murder - burnings - shearing women's hair - to intimidate the Irish population. British Field Marshal Henry Wilson said of the Black and Tans "It was the business of the government to govern. If these men ought to be murdered, then the government ought to murder them." Michael Collins could equally chillingly say "Careful application of terrorism is also an excellent form of total communication." The actions of the British and Irish frequently mirrored one another - an uncomfortable reality of the War of Independence. This book examines the trauma of the times - both the exceptional and the ordinary - through a diverse range of topics. During the Irish War of Independence, the British and the Irish sides often reflected one another. Both the Irish and the British did well in some areas, and were deficient in others.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Irish Civil War was contested as bitterly in Clare as in any other part of Ireland.

This work examines the nature of that bitter conflict in this historic county. The Irish Civil War was contested as bitterly in Clare as in any other part of Ireland.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Ireland has the most cyclical construction sector in Europe, equaled only by Spain. Except for an interlude of normality in the early 1990s, it has been dominated for half a century by booms, busts, slow and painful recoveries, housing shortages and surpluses, and soaring and crashing prices.Unless this exceptional cyclicality is tackled, it may frustrate reforms and disrupt housing markets more or less indefinitely. As the cycle cannot be forecast reliably, semi-automatic measures put in place in advance are needed.The book examines the scope for them, in each stage of the construction process: development land, infrastructure, and construction/housing markets.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The ruins of an Anglo-Norman fortress built over an Early Christian Irish dun, it was fought over, occupied, fortified, reinforced, seized, abandoned, and blown up. Today, silhouetted against the Laois skyline, the stark grandeur of the ruined fastness of Dunamase has the power still to stir our imaginations.Plundered by Viking raiders in 843AD, it became the dowry of Aoife, the bartered daughter of Diarmait Mac Murchada, when she married Richard De Clare, Strongbow, as the price for the Anglo-Norman invader restoring Diarmait as king of Leinster.Fortified by a murder hole, arrow slits, portcullis, drawbridge and high protecting walls, the struggles between Gaelic Irish versus invading forces played out around the fortress of Dunamase for centuries. Weapons and armor, buckles and spurs, gaming pieces and arrowheads, Gaelic metalwork and medieval coins, all unearthed in excavations, bear witness to its role as a focal point for critical events in Irish history. The ruins of an Anglo-Norman fortress built over an Early Christian Irish dun, it was fought over, occupied, fortified, reinforced, seized, abandoned, and blown up. Today, silhouetted against the Laois skyline, the stark grandeur of the ruined fastness of Dunamase, the 'high fortress', has the power still to stir our imaginations.

    Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Rural Ireland and its agricultural way of life are emblematic of this country. For most of modern history, however, rural Ireland and Irish agriculture were comparatively underdeveloped. This changed dramatically in the twentieth century, during which they were transformed. In 1900 they were synonymous with poverty; by 2000 they had become synonymous with progress. Many people and organizations contributed to this, but chief among these were the Irish agricultural advisory services.First established in the early 1900s, they are today operated as a public service by Teagasc, Ireland's Agriculture and Food Development Authority. With their establishment, agricultural instructors, trained to the highest international standards, were dispatched to every community in rural Ireland. Their brief was to work with farmers, helping them to improve their farm enterprises and, in so doing, to develop rural Ireland. This gradually bore fruit, as each succeeding generation of agricultural advisors and farmers cooperated to adopt the most modern agricultural approaches. This book tells their story.
