EH.N: ANN: Studies in Irish Economic and Social History

Studies in Irish Economic and Social History

The Economic and Social History society of Ireland was established in 
1972 to further the study of the economic and social histories of 
Ireland and the Irish. In 1974 the society began the publication of 
its journal Irish Economic and Social History. Ten years later the 
society took the bold step to commence publication of a series of 
short pamphlets, Studies in Irish Economic and Social History. These 
short texts offer a concise, readable and affordable overview of key 
themes and periods in Irish history. Each is written by a leading 
expert in the field, specifically with Irish Leaving Certificate, UK 
'A' Level, and first year undergraduate students in mind. They are 
also invaluable to academics as convenient repositories of much 
useful information and myriad references. The series has won wide 
critical acclaim, and is already extensively used in schools and 
universities in Ireland and elsewhere. There are now ten titles in 
the series, as listed below:

1. Irish emigration 1801-1921, David Fitzpatrick
2. Landlords and tenants in Ireland 1848-1904, W.E. Vaughan
