The Irish: A Photohistory by Sean Sexton and Christine Kinealy presents Ireland’s social and historical experience through early photography. Its portraits and documentary scenes bring the people behind Irish history into view, offering an engaging reference for Irish heritage researchers, photography collectors, and readers interested in everyday life in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ireland.

Historical photographs and explanatory captions explore rural work, traditional clothing, poverty, family life, and a changing society. Images include fishwives of the Claddagh in County Galway, sheep shearing in Connemara, and early portraits of children, alongside urban and political scenes.
