About this product

About this product

Product Information

The eighteenth century was a time of great hardship in Ulster. The Irish parliament had become a byword for corruption, and, under pressure from England, crippling restrictions were imposed on Irish trade. Poverty was widespread and affected Catholics and Protestants alike. To add to their suffering, the poor were oppressed by the extortions of greedy agents and middlemen. Smuggling was rife and lawless banditti roamed the country. Inspired by the examples of the American and French revolutions, the United Irishmen fanned the flames of revolt. Authority of all kinds, secular and clerical, was assailed, and as the century drew to a close Ulster erupted in rebellion.
