A New History of Ireland: Volume III: Early Modern Ireland 1534-1691 cover

BL Reissued with a comprehensive and up-to-date bibliographical supplement Planned and established by the late T. W. Moody, A New History of Ireland is a harvesting of modern scholarship on Irish history from the earliest times to the present. There will be ten volumes, six of which have been published to date. The third volume opens with a character study of early modern Ireland and a panoramic survey of Ireland in 1534, followed by twelve chapters of narrative history. There are further chapters on the economy, the coinage, languages and literature, and the Irish abroad. Two surveys, `Land and People', c.1600 and c.1685, are included.

`Volume Three of A New History of Ireland has succeeded in its aim of elucidating in an authoritative and up-to-date manner the history of an important phase of Irish development.' Canadian Journal of Irish Studies
`Here is a valuable example of academic advances placed at the service of a general reader ... Excellent maps and illustrations enhance a volume that is a refreshing summary of mature research as well as a signpost towards promising areas of new investigation.' Catholic Historical Review
