Traditional perspectives on Irish history have been swept away in recent years, not only as a result of the tragic events in Northern Ireland, but as a result of the researches and discoveries of a brilliant generation of Irish historians. This is, therefore, an appropriate time for the publication of a new general history of the country, generously illustrated and offering the fruits of recent scholarship to a wider public.Kenneth Neill has accomplished this task in THE IRISH PEOPLE. Aimed at a general readership and written in a clear, uncomplicated style, (free of historiograhical jargon), the book is illustrated by over 450 photographs, which include 8 pages in full color. This unique pictorial record of the achievements of the Irish, not only at home but throughout the world, is probably the finest and most comprehensive collection ever made in one volume. Illustrations from archives and private collections in Ireland, Britain, Europe, the United States, Canada and Australia are included in the book, and help to reveal the rich, if often tragic, tapestry of Irish history in the most graphic form.The themes and forces of Irish history have reverberated throughout the world. In dealing with these, Kenneth Neill has given due and necessary attention to political matters but has attempted, in the main, to stress the social aspects of people's lives. The ideas, fears, ambitions, economic circumstances and common beliefs that gave direction to the ordinary lives of ordinary Irish men and these are major subjects of this book.As an outstanding work of synthesis, THE IRISH PEOPLE will be welcomed by all who wish to know more about the achievements and history of a nation whose accomplishments are quite out of proportion to its size.
