Ulster's Stand For Union is a historical book written by Ronald John McNeill, first published in 1922. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the events leading up to the partition of Ireland and the establishment of Northern Ireland as a separate entity from the rest of the country. It focuses on the role played by Ulster Unionists in this process, particularly during the Home Rule crisis of 1912-14 and the subsequent Easter Rising of 1916. McNeill examines the political, social, and cultural factors that shaped the Unionist movement in Ulster, including the influence of religion, ethnicity, and economic interests. He also explores the opposition to Unionism from Irish Nationalists and the British government, as well as the impact of the First World War and the Irish War of Independence on the partition of Ireland. Throughout the book, McNeill argues that Ulster's stand for union was a crucial factor in preserving the unity of the United Kingdom and preventing the disintegration of British power in Ireland. He also highlights the complex and often controversial nature of Unionist politics in Ulster, including the tensions between different factions within the movement and the challenges of maintaining support for the Union in the face of changing social and political conditions. Overall, Ulster's Stand For Union is a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most significant periods in Irish and British history, and an essential read for anyone interested in the politics and culture of Ireland and the United Kingdom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
