Download or read book Land War and Eviction in Derryveagh 1840 65 written by Liam Dolan and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Derryveagh Evictions, more popularly known by their misnomer, the Glenveagh Evictions, could be the story of any part of rural Ireland in the post-famine period. That they occurred on the scale that they did and at that particular point in time is at once easily understood, because, just as the corriter's potatoes were blighted, so also were the fortunes of many a landlord who then fell prey to the 'land jobbers'. The tenantry may have bewailed their plight during pre-famine days but theirs was to be the unenviable future of rack-renting, insecurity and eviction at the hands of a new aspiring landowning class that stalked the Incumbered Estates Courts seeking easy and quick fortunes. The Derryveagh Evictions were one of the more harrowing episodes of this period. -- Publisher description

Download or read book Making Sense of the Molly Maguires written by Kevin Kenny and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-02-12 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty Irish immigrants, suspected of belonging to a secret terrorist organization called the Molly Maguires, were executed in Pennsylvania in the 1870s for the murder of sixteen men. Ever since, there has been enormous disagreement over who the Molly Maguires were, what they did, and why they did it, as virtually everything we now know about the Molly Maguires is based on the hostile descriptions of their contemporaries. Arguing that such sources are inadequate to serve as the basis for a factual narrative, author Kevin Kenny examines the ideology behind contemporary evidence to explain how and why a particular meaning came to be associated with the Molly Maguires in Ireland and Pennsylvania. At the same time, this work examines new archival evidence from Ireland that establishes that the American Molly Maguires were a rare transatlantic strand of the violent protest endemic in the Irish countryside. Combining social and cultural history, Making Sense of the Molly Maguires offers a new explanation of who the Molly Maguires were, as well as why people wrote and believed such curious things about them. In the process, it vividly retells one of the classic stories of American labor and immigration.
