Synopsis
Excerpt from Sixty Years' Experience as an Irish Landlord: Memoirs of John Hamilton, D. L. Of St. Ernan's, Donegal
I. Mr. Hamilton as a Landlord. - II. The Irish Land Question. - Comparison between French Peasantry and Irish Peasantry. - What constitutes Nationality? - Traditions of Race or of Religion, or these two combined? - Examples. - III. Mr. Hamilton's writings on Religious Questions.
The Irish land question and landlord class have much occupied public attention during the last thirty years. Much legislative action, culminating in the Land Purchase Act of 1891, has been the result. This Act of 1891 is a crossing of the Rubicon from one order of things to another, and, like the Reform Bill of 1832, denotes a fundamental change, from which in course of time many subsidiary changes will be a natural evolution. The present outlook seems to indicate that the Irish system of land tenure will approximate more and more towards the French system, having some large properties and very numerous small properties in land.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of 19th-century Irish landlordism, focusing on the life and experiences of a landowner navigating a period of immense social and political change. Set against the backdrop of the Irish land question and the tumultuous years of the Great Famine, the author's memoirs offer a unique perspective on the challenges and responsibilities faced by landlords during this era. The narrative explores themes of social justice, religious tolerance, and the evolving relationship between landowners and tenants. The author's efforts to improve the lives of his tenants, his advocacy for education and his progressive views on land ownership challenge traditional notions of landlordism. His experiences during the famine years highlight the devastating impact of the crisis and the complexities of providing relief. By examining the author's personal journey and his interactions with the people and events of his time, this book provides valuable insights into the historical, social, and economic forces that shaped 19th-century Ireland. The author's unwavering commitment to justice and compassion serves as a testament to the potential for positive change within a system often marked by inequality and suffering.
