Riassunto

This book is designed to be an essential reference tool for all students and researchers of Irish history. Among the documents reproduced are the Ulster Solemn League and Covenant of 1912 which formed the basis of the Ulster Unionist resistance to Home Rule, a campaign which eventually resulted in the establishment of Northern Ireland; the Proclamation of the Republic of Ireland at the time of the Easter Rebellion of 1916; the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1922; the manifesto of the Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association of 1968 and the Anglo-Irish Agreement of 1985. In addition to these major texts this book contains material such as the Fenian proclamation of 1867, letters from lords lieutenant and other government officials in the 19th century, and contemporary documents from the Famine which tell graphically of the human and social cost of that tragedy.
