1550 The Roman Catholic Church and the Creation of the Modern Irish State 1878-1886, by Emmet Larkin (read 26 Jan 1980) This book is drawn mostly from letters written by Irish bishops of the time, and was most interesting. Edward McCabe became Archbishop of Dublin after the death of Paul Cardinal Cullen in 1878, and was made Cardinal on March 30, 1882, with four others. Cardinal McCabe died Feb 11, 1885.

1551 The Roman Catholic Church in Ireland and the Fall of Parnell 1888-1891, by Emmet Larkin (read 16 Feb 1980) This is the second volume of Emmet Larkin's work on the Catholic Church's role in Irish political life, this volume dealing with the years 1888 to 1891. Archbishop Walsh emerges as the leader of the Irish hierarchy, with Archbishop Croke of Cashel playing a strong role. The account of the fall of Parnell is as usual full of interest. I am extremely fascinated by Irish history.
