Ferriter has written an excellent scholarly reevaluation of the historiography and events of the Easter 1916 nationalist rising in Dublin, Ireland. Highly readable and deeply researched, this book guides readers through the intricacies of the rising along with the historical use of each precipitating event and how these events impacted relations in Ireland during the remainder of the 20th century...Accessible to a general audience and of great interest to an academic one, this book will be a welcome addition to any collection on Irish history.
With an unrivaled command of the sources, Ferriter offers a brilliant analysis of the formative decade in modern Irish history. In powerful prose brimming with the new insights of social history, he reveals the multiple fault-lines within the standard political narrative of Irish freedom. Ferriter's analysis has important implications not only for how we interpret Irish history but also for how, on that basis, we make sense of Irish society and politics today.--Kevin Kenny, Professor of History at Boston College and author of The American Irish: A History
Renowned Irish historian Diarmaid Ferriter presents a fresh look at the Irish revolutionary period from 1913-1923, drawing from newly available historical sources as well as the testimonies of the people who lived and fought through this extraordinary period. Ferriter highlights the gulf between rhetoric and reality in politics and violence, the role of women, the battle for material survival, the impact of key Irish unionist and republican leaders, as well as conflicts over health, land, religion, law and order, and welfare.
