reviewed Ireland: A History on November 17, 2018 Ireland
This is a superb history of Ireland. My college major was history and I do not remember a comprehensive history book that was as clear and concise as this.
Ireland's history is very complex and Kee presents the facts as clearly as possible. He does not pull any punches or favor any one faction over another. He includes all the trauma of being subservient to England and the potato famine and traces the effects of these events. He presents the unusual birth of rebellion by naive intellectuals and how their rebellion eventually took hold. He explains how the Catholic church was able to gain control of the population and the deeply divisive effects of religion in this beautiful country.
Pictures are a tremendous help in bringing this history to life and there are many of them.
If you are interested in Irish history, please read this. You will gain an understanding and will enjoy the experience.
