Excerpt from The Secret Societies of Ireland: Their Rise and Progress
For the purposes of this book I have undertaken a considerable amount of research, and have read all the existing books, pamphlets and contemporary journals, germane to the subject, upon which I could lay my hands. In most cases I have indicated, either in foot-notes or in the text, the sources of information quoted. Most of these sources are available in the libraries either of Dublin Castle, the Irish Office, or the British Museum.
In all cases Where statements of fact appear which are not referred to published books or documents, they have been gleaned from papers which came into the possession of the authorities after raids, etc., or are from confidential official sources.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the shadowy world of Irish secret societies, exploring their origins, evolution, and impact on Irish history. Beginning with the tumultuous seventeenth century, the author meticulously traces the development of these clandestine organizations, from the Defenders of the 1641 rebellion to the Ribbon men of the nineteenth century. The book unveils how these groups, often fueled by religious tensions, agrarian grievances, and nationalist aspirations, contributed to a century of turmoil and unrest in Ireland. The author's insights provide a unique perspective on the complex interplay between religion, politics, and crime in Irish society. He explores the influence of foreign ideologies, particularly the French Revolution and Jacobinism, and their impact on the Irish revolutionary movement. Through detailed analysis of oaths, rituals, and internal organization, the book reveals the motivations, strategies, and tactics of these secretive groups. The book's exploration of the often intertwined histories of the Catholic Defenders, the Protestant Peep-o-Day Boys, and the Orange Order sheds light on the enduring legacy of sectarianism in Ireland and its implications for political and social stability. Ultimately, this book serves as a vital resource for understanding the role of secret societies in shaping the tumultuous course of Irish history.
