Summary

"Over about two-thirds of Ireland the Anglo-Normans established themselves in baronies, settling down to exploit the land in their own interests and partly in the interests of the king of England. This new book studies one of these baronies, the Earldom of Ulster, and by using archaeological and documentary evidence shows how it functioned in medieval Ireland. It discusses where the Anglo-Normans actually settled in Ulster and when; the resources that they exploited and how they did so; how the earldom was organised; how much of the English way of life was established in Ulster; and the impact of the settlement on the Irish."--Jacket.
