London Constable and Co. 1997 Reprint. Hardback Very Good + Very Good +
A very nice book, possibly an unread copy. Maron covers, with pictorial D/W which is unclipped. In 1798, fired by the great examples of America and France, the men of County Antrim and County Down attempted a Revolution. Like those who inspired them they wanted land, power and religious freedom in the country that belonged to them: efforts to negotiate with the oppresive English government had failed, and now with the real expectation that Napolen would land in Wexford with a vast support army, they hoped to achieve their goals by force. Their struggle was brave, bloody and unsuccessful. An exciting read for both the amateur and professional historian.
