Essays in Irish Labour History A Festschrift for Elizabeth And John W. Boyle

"The history of labour in Ulster is well covered in this book, as is that of Protestant workers throughout the island. The collection also includes substantial scholarly articles that reflect ongoing research and areas that have thus far been neglected, such as the importance of time-discipline in nineteenth-century Ireland and the impact of religion on the Irish Labour Party, 1922-73. The range of topics is broad and includes an obituary essay on the Boyles and an interrogation of Irish historiography and the working class."--BOOK JACKET.Devine, Francis is the author of 'Essays in Irish Labour History A Festschrift for Elizabeth And John W.
