The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw the rise of the "Home
Tour," with travelers drawn to Scotland, the less explored regions
of England and North Wales, and, increasingly, to Ireland. Although
an integral part of the United Kingdom from 1800, Ireland
represented for many travellers a worryingly unknown entity,
politically intractable and unstable, devoutly Catholic, and
economically deprived. This book examines British responses to the
"Sister Isle" throughout a period of significant cultural and
historical change, and examines the varied means through which
Ireland was represented for a predominantly British audience.
