Description
The Land War (1879-1882) was a time of great agitation in Ireland, much of it directed against Irish landlords and the British Crown. Violence associated with the land-reform movement, led by Michael Davitt and Charles Stewart Parnell, and the implementation of boycotting and its enforced compliance, became commonplace. This book describes some of the events that took place during that period in the Joyce Country in Counties Mayo and Galway.
