Catholics and the Law in Restoration Ireland
In Restoration Ireland the law primarily served the interests of the English state and the Anglo-Protestant community. This book is the first to explore how Irish Catholics experienced a legal system which was inimical to their interests. It does so through case studies based on a wide range of little used archival sources and Gaelic poetry. -- .

A Hillfort Through Time: Excavations at Rathgall, County Wicklow
Rathgall Hillfort is perhaps one of the most important, iconic and well-known monuments in Irish archaeology. This publication presents the excavations at Rathgall, Co. Wicklow, conducted by Barry Raftery, formerly Professor of Celtic Archaeology at University College Dublin. Although Raftery published aspects of the site primarily in the 1970s, he passed away before he could finalise a comprehensive account.
