In 1790s the Irish Rebellion claimed 20,000 lives, leading to the Act of Union that determined Ireland's future. This true story of a leading family in the Irish aristocracy brings a new perspective to these shattering events in Ireland's history. While revealing how public and private worlds collided in a tale of love, betrayal, ambition and rebellion, Janet Todd also sheds light on eighteenth-century female experience, tracing a path from early feminism to Irish nationalism. It is an extraordinary account of how the fate of Ireland and the role of the Anglo-Irish aristocracy changed for ever.
