The Irish in Mid-Victorian Lancashire: The Shaping of a Working-Class Community (Irish Studies)

William J. Lowe
4.9/5 (20960 ratings)
Description:The largest concentration of Irish immigrants in Victorian England was found in Liverpool, Manchester, and the neighboring towns of industrial Lancashire. This book uses local sources, from census book data to police reports, to reconstruct a comprehensive social history of this important working-class community. The Irish became prominent in Lancashire town life when thousands arrived as fugitives from the Great Famine of the 1840s. For over a quarter-century they used their Irish cultural heritage and experience to form themselves into a distinctive and mature community. Detailed analyses of how their lived and worked and their relationships with their English neighbors create the social context for the development of a sophisticated community life and identity that produced a uniquely Lancashire brand of Irish nationalism.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
