Outstanding contribution to Irish political/cultural history,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Foundations: Ireland 1660-1800 (Hardcover)
Now in a newly revised and expanded second edition, David Dickson's New Foundations: Ireland 1660-1800 continues to be a benchmark contribution to Irish history. Dickson chronicles the cataclysmic events preceded change in Ireland before 1660 and led the emergence of a new social order dominated by the ruling class of Anglican gentry. This group went on to achieve a remarkable economic and political ascendancy over rival social and religious groups until the last quarter of the eighteenth century. New Foundations presents a comprehensive and informative general survey of this critically important period of Irish history and explains how such a monopoly of power was achieved, consolidated, and eventual challenged by a diversity of forces both internal and external. New Foundations continues to be a superb contribution that will be much appreciated by students and scholars of Irish political and cultural history.
