The book covers the period of time in Irish history known as the Penal Times, which spanned from 1660 to 1760. During this time, the Catholic Church was heavily persecuted by the British government, and many priests were forced to go into hiding or flee the country.Burke's book provides a detailed account of the lives of Irish priests during this period. He discusses the various challenges they faced, including imprisonment, torture, and execution. He also explores the ways in which priests were able to continue practicing their faith in secret, often risking their lives to do so.The book is based on extensive research, including primary sources such as letters, diaries, and official records. Burke's writing is clear and engaging, making the book accessible to both scholars and general readers.Overall, The Irish Priests In The Penal Times 1660-1760 is a fascinating and informative look at a little-known period in Irish history. It sheds light on the struggles and sacrifices of the priests who kept the Catholic faith alive during a time of great persecution.From The State Papers In The H. M.
