Land Tenure In Ireland - Isaac Butt - Bog

Land Tenure In Ireland: A Plea For The Celtic Race is a book written by Isaac Butt in 1866. The book is a detailed analysis of the land tenure system in Ireland, which is considered as one of the main causes of the country's poverty and social unrest during that time. The author argues that the system of land tenure in Ireland is fundamentally flawed and unjust, as it allows absentee landlords to control vast tracts of land without any regard for the needs and rights of the tenants who actually work and live on the land. He also highlights the historical and cultural factors that have contributed to the current state of land ownership in Ireland, including the impact of English colonialism and the suppression of the Celtic culture.Butt's book is a passionate plea for the rights of the Celtic race in Ireland, and he argues that the only way to solve the country's problems is to reform the land tenure system and give the tenants greater control over their own land. He offers a range of practical solutions to achieve this goal, including the establishment of a land court to settle disputes and the creation of a system of land purchase that would allow tenants to buy their own land over time.Overall, Land Tenure In Ireland: A Plea For The Celtic Race is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex social and economic issues facing Ireland during the 19th century. It is an insightful and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in Irish history and the struggle for social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
