Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Cruise O'Brien, Sunday Telegraph. 22 essays give a fascinating composite portrait of 1790s Ireland, a crucible of nationalism, nascent nineteenth-century democratic politics, and social and cultural change, a decade which is increasingly being considered as one of the most formative in modern Irish history.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 307-365) and index.
