"A Short History of Ireland stands out for its brevity, but also for its accessibility. . . . A solid introduction not only to the key events and themes of Irish history, but also to the processes of that history, too."

-Sean Hewitt, Irish Times

A concise history of Ireland from the Protestant Reformation to the present day - newly revised and expanded

In this compact and accessible account, John Gibney traces five centuries of Irish history. He explores major events and key themes, including the Cromwellian conquest, the Great Famine, and the struggle for independence. Wide-ranging and brisk, engaging and informative, this is essential reading for anyone interested in Ireland's complex past.
