Morley uses a dazzling array of sources - newspapers, pamphlets, sermons and political songs, including Irish-language documents unknown to other scholars and previously unpublished - to trace the evolving attitudes of the Anglican, Catholic and Presbyterian communities from the beginning of colonial unrest in the early 1760s until the end of hostilities in 1783. He also reassesses the influence of the American revolutionary war on such developments as Catholic relief, the removal of restrictions on Irish trade, and Britain's recognition of Irish legislative independence. Morley sheds light on the nature of Anglo-Irish patriotism and Catholic political consciousness, and reveals the extent to which the polarities of the 1790s had already emerged by the end of the American war. 517 3 $aIrish Opinion & the American Revolution, 1760-1783 606 $aPublic opinion$zIreland$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yRevolution, 1775-1783$xForeign public opinion, Irish 607 $aUnited States$xHistory$yRevolution, 1775-1783$xInfluence 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zIreland 607 $aIreland$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aIreland$xPolitics and government$y1760-1820 615 0$aPublic opinion$xHistory 676 $a941.507 700 $aMorley$b Vincent$01549240 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783121203321 996 $aIrish opinion and the American Revolution, 1760-1783$93807081 997 $aUNINA
