Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical account of late 16th and early 17th century Galway, Ireland, as experienced by the fourteen merchant families who came to dominate the town in its early days. The author delves into the lives of these merchant families, their laws and regulations, along with their sometimes-fraught relationship with the Irish. The book also explores the struggles and changing fortunes of Galway's people throughout the period, from its bustling economic prosperity to its crushing decline after the Siege of Galway in 1654, an event that saw inhabitants forcibly removed from their homes. The author brings to life a tumultuous period of Irish history through the singular experiences of these merchant families, weaving together a rich tapestry of hardship, determination, and resilience.
