A study of three centuries of County Mayo's history, during which it was slowly and hesitatingly transformed from being a remote, isolated, impoverished and largely hostile region of the country to being at the centre of the rapidly unfolding drama of Irish politics, and integrated into Ireland's post-Famine agrarian capitalist economy.
