1916 and All That

ISBN:97818455887490

written by C.M. Boylan.

Irish history started when people arrived on the island. At least, that is when history really got going. Before that things were rather quiet . . .

So begins 1916 and all That, C.M. Boylans wonderfully irreverent take on the history of Ireland. It will take you from the Age of the Third Best Metal, through the struggles of Wolfe Tone (Irelands best-named revolutionary), right through the Celtic Tiger years, when there was pancetta and rubies for all. And then on to the present day, when there are fewer rubies.
