Going right to the heart of the Irish Question, Paul Bew offers a re-interpretation of Irish politics in the critical 1912-1916 period. Bew offers a full treatment of the debate concerning land, economy, religion, language, and national identity in the period, and ends with a discussion of the Easter Rising of 1916 which destroyed Redmond's party. The political, cultural, and economic implications of this development are drawn out, and Bew examines their continuing effect on Irish history.

'a small treasure trove of facts' (Times Literary Supplement)
Could Ireland have become a separate nation in 1912? How did nationalist and unionist influences in Ireland react to the possibility? This look at the 1912-1916 period examines the issues at stake in the Home Rule crisis of 1912-1914 and offers an assessment of the Easter Rising of 1916.
