The Troubles by Ulick O'connor

The Troubles by Ulick O'connor

When Asquith introduced his bill for Home Rule for Ireland in 1912 he sparked a decade of turbulence and violence for Ireland and her people. The outbreak of World War I temporarily eclipsed Ireland's aspirations for freedom, but the issue resurfaced with the abortive 1916 Easter Rising. The bitter and bloody resistance to British Rule which followed culminated in Bloody Sunday in 1920 and the final disintegration of the British administration in Ireland. The author's forefathers fought with Parnell for the Separatist cause. Following personal interviews with leading figures of the period, O'Connor has produced a vivid account of a crucial period in Irish history.
