What is Ireland Of One Hundred Years Ago (sutton's Old Photographic) about?

Through the evocative work of early photographers and carefully chosen quotations from the writing of the day, this book illustrates the country and its people during a period of rapid and dramatic change. The fine selection of illustrations that have been brought together for this book record the startling contrasts of the era, presenting the aristocracy, the professionals, the city-workers, the rural people and, in particular, the farmers and laborers whose livelihoods depended on the land. <p>The works of early photographers and writers create powerful impressions of the attitudes, concerns, habits, opinions, and activities of the Irish at the beginning of the 20th century--from the poverty of the remote countryside to the bounty of plantation towns and thriving cities and from religious life to political strife. </p>
