A scholarly, in-depth, highly recommended Irish history.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Rebellion in Wicklow 1798 (New Directions in Irish History) (Hardcover)
Ruan O'Donnell's Rebellion In Wicklow 1798 is the first comprehensive investigation of a county level United Irishman organization from its inception to its final dissolution. Historian and journalist Ruan O'Donnell provides the first full, scholarly, in-depth historical treatment of 1798 in County Wicklow, Ireland, and makes a compelling case for reconsidering the current Wexford oriented historiography of the south Leinster rebellion. This fresh, meticulously researched account surveys the social, economic and political origins of the Wicklow Rebellion and provides a detailed examination of every part and aspect, all the major players and events. A charted day by day history, Rebellion In Wicklow 1798 fully explores and describes the interaction of Wicklow county's United Irishmen with their comrades in Wexford, Dublin, Kildare and Math. Rebellion In Wicklow 1798 is enhanced with seven appendices (including one with a list identifying almost one thousand Wicklow United Irishmen), an extensive bibliography, and a comprehensive index.
