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. -- .
