Parnell in Perspective - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Charles Stewart Parnell attracted adulation and hatred in his own day, and is still a controversial figure in teh pantheon of Irish nationalism. This collection of essays looks at the ideas and political style of a man whose personality and career remain something of an enigma. It explores aspects of Parnell's career which have previously been neglected, placing him in context as a political leader whose career reveals many of the ambiguities of British and Irish political life, and whose combination of parliamentary and personal qualities made him `The Uncrowned King of Ireland'. This book should be of interest to students and teachers of Anglo-Irish history.
