Illustrated. 130 Dublin: Four Courts Press, 1994. pp. x, 219, [2]. Pictorial wrappers. A good copy.

A compelling and scholarly study of Fr. Patrick Lavelle, one of the most controversial figures in nineteenth-century Irish history. In A Radical Priest in Mayo, Gerard Moran examines Lavelle’s role in the Land War, his fierce advocacy for tenant rights, and his complex relationship with both Church and nationalist movements. Drawing on rich archival sources, this work offers valuable insight into rural agitation, clerical influence, and political unrest in the west of Ireland. An essential title for collectors of Irish history, Mayo studies, Land League material, and nineteenth-century nationalism.
