Synopsis
Tim Pat Coogan writes an account of the Rising by introducing the major players, themes and outcomes of a drama that would profoundly affect 20th-century Irish history. The day-to-day events of the Rising are detailed in this remarkable story and enhanced by photographs, maps and historical documents of Dublin during those bloody six days. The result is not only an important history of a turning point in Ireland's struggle for freedom, but also a testament to the men and women of courage and conviction who were prepared to give their lives for what they believed was right.
