Harvey were condemned as pernicious to the faith. Where once seventy public libraries had fed the minds of scholars, and half a million books had been gatheredtogether at Cordova for the benefit Of the world, such indifference to learning afterwards pre vailed, that the new capital, Madrid, possessed no public library in the eighteenth century, and even the manuscripts of the Escurial were denied in our own days to the first scholarly historian Of the Moors, though himself a Spaniard. The sixteen thousand looms Of Seville soon dwindled to a fifth of their ancient number; the arts and industries Of Toledo and Almeria faded into insignificance; the very baths — public buildings Of equal ornament and use were destroyed because cleanliness savoured too strongly Of rank infidelity. The land, deprived of the skilful irrigation Of the Moors, grew impoverished and neglected; the richest and most fertile valleys lan guished and were deserted; most Of the populous cities which had filled every district Of Andalusia fell into ruinous decay; and beggars, friars, and bandits took the place Of scholars, merchants, and knights. SO low fell Spain when she had driven away the Moors. Such is the melancholy contrast Offered by her history.

Twenty Irish immigrants, suspected of belonging to a secret terrorist organization called the Molly Maguires, were executed in Pennsylvania in the 1870s for the murder of sixteen men. Ever since, there has been enormous disagreement over who the Molly Maguires were, what they did, and why they did it, as virtually everything we now know about the Molly Maguires is based on the hostile descriptions of their contemporaries. Arguing that such sources are inadequate to serve as the basis for a factual narrative, author Kevin Kenny examines the ideology behind contemporary evidence to explain how and why a particular meaning came to be associated with the Molly Maguires in Ireland and Pennsylvania. At the same time, this work examines new archival evidence from Ireland that establishes that the American Molly Maguires were a rare transatlantic strand of the violent protest endemic in the Irish countryside. Combining social and cultural history, Making Sense of the Molly Maguires offers a new explanation of who the Molly Maguires were, as well as why people wrote and believed such curious things about them. In the process, it vividly retells one of the classic stories of American labor and immigration.
