This work details traces the origins, development and impact of the
proselytizing organization, the Society for Irish Church Missions
to the Roman Catholics, from its Protestant foundation during the
famine of 1845-47 to the early decades of Irish Free State. It
argues that the foundation of this ostensibly religious society was
also underpinned by social, political, and economic factors and
demonstrates that by the mid 1850s the mission operated on a very
substantial scale. Moffitt examines the mission's role in the
shifting political realities of the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries. The impact of this inter-faith power struggle
and its legacy to the present day are explored by examining
contemporary sources, folklore evidence, and the depiction of
proselytizing missions in both Catholic and Protestant denomination
literature and fictional writings. -- .
