Fifty essays. Fifty contributors. One extraordinary year.
From the handover of Dublin Castle, to the dawning of a new border across the island, to the fateful divisions of the civil war, Ireland 1922 provides a snapshot of a year of turmoil, tragedy and, amidst it all, state-building as the Irish revolution drew to a close.
Leading international scholars from different disciplines explore a turning point in Irish history; one whose legacy remains controversial a century on.

Reviews
"The book is as beautifully produced as one would expect from the Royal Irish Academy (RIA), which specialises in such publications. The many photographs, murals, cartoons and extracts from letters not only complement but embellish our understanding of the text... Ireland 1922 is a good starting point for people to re-engage with the commemorations, and is to be commended to all who are interested in Irish history." Ronan McGreevy, Irish Times, 22/01/2022
