Summary

Men and women who were born, grew up and died in Ireland between 1850 and 1922 made decisions - to train, to emigrate, to stay at home, to marry, to stay single, to stay at school - based on the knowledge and resources they had at the time. This, the first exclusively social history of Ireland for the years 1850-1922 to appear since 1981, explores that knowledge and discusses those resources, for men and women at all social levels on the island as a whole.

Author Biography

Caitriona Clear lectures in modern Irish and European History at NUI, Galway.
