Ireland and Reform Through British Coercion and Tithes

A condensed account discusses Irish history under British rule from the Act of Union onward.

The text quotes Parnell and Wellington, tracing links between unrest, parliamentary action, and land acts leading to emancipation and church disestablishment debates.
