A fresh look at Ireland’s heated path to self-government, and the forces that shaped it. This edition presents the Report of the Proceedings of the Irish Convention, offering a clear narrative of how the Convention worked, what was decided, and why it mattered for Ireland, Ulster, and Parliament alike.
The material explains how the Convention sought consensus among Nationalists, Southern Unionists, and Labour representatives, and how key questions—especially about Ulster, customs, and the future of fiscal autonomy—drove the work. It also shows how the drafting of the Report aimed to present conclusions with minimal delay, even as groups published minority views.
Ideal for readers of Irish history and constitutional debates seeking a concise view of the Convention’s work and its significance.
