The Year Of Liberty: The Story Of The Great Irish Rebellion Of 1798 by Thomas Pakenham

In May 1798, 100,000 peasants rose against the British government in Ireland. By the time the revolt had been put down four months later, 30,000 were dead. Yet it was not a schoolroom story of the heroic oppressed rising against the brutal oppressor, but the result of a complex, tragic, often absurd and sometimes heroic interplay between different groups of people. This 2000 Abacus Paperback is in fair condition. Spine creased; tanning; dog-eared.
