Family and Farm in Pre-Famine Ireland The Parish of Killashandra

Now available in paperback, Kevin O'Neill's highly praised study of rural Ireland in the years leading up to the "Great Hunger" of the 1840s explicates the social, economic, and demographic conditions of the era. He argues that overpopulation and deprivation were inextricably linked to a third variable--the rapid economic development of rural Ireland that was shaped by British interests.O'Neill, Kevin is the author of 'Family and Farm in Pre-Famine Ireland The Parish of Killashandra' with ISBN 9780299098445 and ISBN 0299098443.
