A superb introduction to one of the world's most magical beautiful and historically rich countries. Although small, Ireland has made a distinctive and lasting contribution to our world.

For most of its history it has been relatively isolated and was never part of the Roman Empire. In Medieval times, it was at best an autonomous region at the margin of English Royal Power.

Discover the treasured and haunting tapestry of events that is Ireland. A cultural adventure through time from the Celts to the Williamite War. From the rise of O'Connell to the Easter Rising and the revolutionary Michael Collins.

With a captivating music score, authentic dramatisations and a lilting historical narration, this fascinating documentary is an ideal programme for student, tourist and enthusiast alike.

Based on the book - A Short History of Ireland by Richard Killeen
