Wiggins explores the economic, social, and political factors that contributed to the poverty and misery experienced by the Irish peasantry.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of the landlord-tenant relationship. Wiggins discusses the history of land ownership in Ireland, the role of the landlord in the Irish economy, and the impact of the potato famine on the country's agricultural sector. He also examines the legal framework governing landlord-tenant relations and the ways in which landlords exploited their tenants.Throughout the book, Wiggins provides numerous examples of the harsh treatment endured by Irish tenants at the hands of their landlords.
