This book explores the history of land ownership in Ireland, examining how various laws and policies have shaped the relationship between landlords and tenants over centuries. The author argues that the Irish Land System has been marked by deep divisions of race and faith, and that these have had a profound impact on the economic and social development of the country. The book traces the evolution of land tenure in Ireland from the Celtic era to the present day, examining the impact of conquest, colonization, and famine on the Irish landscape and the lives of those who lived on it. The author also discusses the various attempts to reform the Land System, including the Land Acts of 1870 and 1881, and the implications of these reforms for the future of Irish society.
