Reviews
Reviews 'A valuable and timely collection.'
Paul Warde, University of Cambridge
'The originality and the excellence of this book reside precisely in the diversity of the fields investigated by the contributors who, in their individual areas of research, show how nineteenth-century Irish history and literature can be reassessed and better understood when the issue of the environment becomes the central critical focus.'
Marie Mianowski, Estudios Irlandeses
'Overall, this coherent volume demonstrates how Irish environmental humanities continues to cultivate unique and complementary scholarship.'
Justin Dolan Stover, Irish Historical Studies
'Matthew Kelly has done an admirable job both in selecting high-quality essays and in assembling them into a coherent structure. His engaging introduction performs some heavy lifting, deftly summarizingecocritical theory and Irish environmental history scholarship... Victorianists looking for an overview of Irish environmental scholarship, Kelly's introduction will prove an invaluable read.'
Siobhan Carroll, Victorian Studies
