The Little History of Galway

Colm Wallace,

About this book

Today, Galway is home to over 250, 000 people and plays host to over a million tourists per year, who come from all over the world to admire and learn about the culture and history of this beautiful county.

Galway has not always been so tranquil, however, and The Little History of Galway takes a look at the struggles of the county's people across the centuries, from the arrival of Stone Age man through the coming of the Normans and their conquest of the city, to Galway's eventual battle for independence.

Examining pivotal moments such as the siege of Galway by the feared Oliver Cromwell, the Penal Laws and the Famine, Colm Wallace also explores the writers, artists and thinkers that have called the area home, as well as the local people who have worked hard over generations to make Galway the welcoming place that it is today.
