This book, remarkably ahead of its time in its insights, explores the complexities of Ireland during an era when the country was marked by economic and social upheaval. First published in 1905, it delves into the significance of Ireland's failed annexation by England and the impact of this upon Ireland's industries and people, and discusses how the country's concerns differed markedly from those of its northern neighbour, Ulster. Using statistics of the time, the author paints a vivid picture of the day-to-day challenges common Irish people faced and how this adversity greatly influenced emigration and the decline in population. The book captivates with its exploration of why English agricultural methods disastrously failed to take root in Ireland and how the resulting shift to a grazing economy came to define the country's social and economic culture.
