This is the fourth in the series of LiteBite Books telling the story of Ireland. It covers the time of the Nineteenth Century, to my mind one of the most stimulating times in Ireland's history. The Great Famine was not in itself, of course, stimulating, but it's results were surprising. The title The Irish in America deserves a book in itself, one book at the very least. Here we just take a glimpse at the early days. The Transport Revolution with its Atmospheric Railways and its Fly Boats and its steamers and railways should have another book, while The Fenians and Parnell laid the foundation for Modern Island. This, I think, is the most exciting book in this series.
