About this book

Jonathan Bardon's A History of Ulster is widely regarded as the definitive text on the region. Updated with a more recent preface from the author, this illustrated, abridged version offers a comprehensive but accessible overview of life in the province for anyone seeking to understand the roots of its troubled history.

The Vikings, the Norman invasions, the plantations, the Penal Laws, the rise of the United Irishmen and Orangeism, the Act of Union, the linen and shipbuilding industries, the Home Rule Crisis and partition, the civil rights movement, the Troubles and the peace process โ€“ it's all here in this essential companion to Jonathan Bardon's bestselling A History of Ireland in 100 Episodes.
