Seller's Description:
Like New. Size: 12x9x0; [From the library of Monsignor John Louis FitzGerald. ] Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Light wear. Clean, unmarked pages. "The Rising is the story of Easter 1916 from the perspective of those who made it, focusing on the experiences of rank and file revolutionaries. Fearghal McGarry makes use of a unique source that has only recently seen the light of day-a collection of over 1, 700 eye-witness statements detailing the political activities of members of Sinn Gein and militant groups such as the Irish Republican Brotherhood. This collection represents one of the richest and most comprehensive oral history archives devoted to any modern revolution, providing new insights on almost every aspect of this seminal period." Monsignor John Louis FitzGerald was a Baltimore native and former military chaplain who in 2003 established Apostleship of the Sea, a worldwide ministry for seafarers, for the Archdiocese of Baltimore.

An almost perfect book about 1916 - McGarry is a more stringent researcher than most writers on the subject, and a terse and entertaining writer who expands on his subject without blinding the reader with facts.
Even he, though, falls into the trap of quoting Max Caulfield's opinions as if they're fact; but apart from this rare lapse, this is a valuable use of sources.
