Review # 1 was written on 2018-08-26 00:00:00 John Martinelli Very readable if almost impossible to fully cover 1000 years in 300+ pages.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-06-16 00:00:00 Stig Graff A cursory look at Irish history from the tribes of the early first millenium up through the Troubles to the year 2000. Having known very little about Irish history, this was a good overview but I have to stress that it is very, very broad. With such a large span of time to cover in just over 300 pages, you're bound to miss out on a lot of important details. The fact that the portion of the book dedicated to the Irish Civil War pot-independence was only given about 8 pages, however, seemed a bit lacking. If you've read Wikipedia articles on Irish history, then find a book that delves deeper into specific aspects of Irish history in which you're interested.
