Small Differences - Irish Catholics and Irish Protestants, 1815-1922: An International Perspective Volume 1

The assumption that Irish Protestants and Irish Catholics are fundamentally different is central to modern Irish history. There are hundreds of books and thousands of articles that either presuppose the existence of Irish Catholic-Protestant differences or amplify the theme by illustration and anecdote. Small Differences examines what scholars have so far taken for granted.
