A stunning exploration of a legendary moment in Irish history. In 1798 with the British Army preoccupied in fighting France in the Caribbean and Mediterranean as well as guarding Southeast England from threatened invasion; a co-ordinated uprising broke out across the water in Ireland. Uniquely this was neither a Catholic nor a Protestant rebellion; but rather a joint effort by leaders and insurgents from both sides of the community. The Irish Rebellion (1798) was directed against the corrupt government based at Dublin Castle and was inspired in part by the people's revolutions in America and France. This title illuminates the lives of the Irish peasants; armed mostly with pikes; who confronted the small number of British troops based in their country.

I find them time tempered and extraordinarily packed with deep theology. They are a gem for pastoral visits and quick supplements to anyone's daily devotional times.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
