CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title for 2009
'A very important book. As a comprehensive overview of the period and the topic it is probably without compare. As a student handbook on the topic it is almost certainly ideal. The detail is truly impressive.' - Books Ireland
Migration - people moving in as immigrants, around as migrants, and out as emigrants - is a major theme of Irish history. This is the first book to offer both a survey of the last four centuries and an integrated analysis of migration, reflecting a more inclusive definition of the 'people of Ireland'.
