Bodyke: A Chapter In The History Of Irish Landlordism is a historical book written by Henry Norman and originally published in 1887. The book is a detailed account of the events that took place in the small village of Bodyke, County Clare, Ireland, during the late 19th century. The book focuses on the struggles of the Irish people against their English landlords, who controlled much of the land in Ireland at the time. The story centers around the Bodyke Estate, which was owned by an English landlord named Lord Clanricarde. The tenants on the estate were struggling to pay their rent and were facing eviction from their homes and land.The book describes the efforts of a group of tenants, led by a man named Michael Davitt, to resist the eviction and fight for their rights. The tenants organized a boycott of the landlord's rent demands and refused to leave their homes. This led to a confrontation with the authorities, who were called in to enforce the eviction.The book provides a vivid account of the events that followed, including the clashes between the tenants and the police, the court proceedings, and the eventual resolution of the conflict. It also explores the broader issues of Irish nationalism and the struggle for independence from British rule.Overall, Bodyke: A Chapter In The History Of Irish Landlordism is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the complex social and political issues that shaped Ireland in the late 19th century. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Irish history, land reform, 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. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
