Download or read book Stories from Irish History written by James M Bourke and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-12-03 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories from Irish History is a collection of 13 stories based on selected episodes in Irish history, some of which are unremembered. They are historical fiction, a popular modern genre which has great appeal for many readers. Even though the stories are partly fictional, they are based on extensive historical research. We have to go back in time in order to discover ourselves and our culture. We do not have to live in the past but neither should we deny it. Our history is all around us, in the very air we breathe, not only in our history books but in the hills and valleys, in our lore and literature, in our art and architecture, in our songs and poetry. We know that the past is never past. We need to know who we are and who we used to be. We need to know about our cultural heritage, our pre-history, our lore, our local history and the story behind placenames. Ireland is a nation of story-tellers and historical fiction keeps that tradition alive not only in Ireland but also among the Irish diaspora in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIV. THE ORGANIZATION--OUR RETROSPECT. In looking over these answers to correspondents, who are all along and with few exceptions nothing if not warlike, my mind naturally reverts to what was all the time going on beneath the surface, and indeed occasionally cropping up above it. The organization was over spreading, north, south, east and west, but in these later months most notably in the west, greatly owing to the activity and earnestness of Edward Duffy. The West was certainly wide awake at last, but at all points of the compass there was life, and hope, and activity. As to the particular forms this activity was taking, or the particular places where it was most marked, that was directly known to me mainly through these correspondents of whom I have been talking so long, but of course only imperfectly through them, for I was far from encouraging anything like outspokenness on their part. I was very little out of Dublin during the time the Irish People lasted, and, on such flying visits as I paid to the south or the west, I did not put myself in the way of hearing much about the practical work. Of course I saw Stephens often, and from him I heard everything that lie knew, or at least that lie believed, but possibly sometimes only what he wished me to believe. Luby, when he was in town, I saw almost daily, having long talks at least once a week, and learning from him all that was being done or left undone. Luby, as I have mentioned before, unlike Kickham and myself, was in constant communication with the men in Dublin, and indeed elsewhere also, for he made more than one visit to the provinces during this time, and at least one to England. Through Luby then I was. mainly, though by no means exclusively, "posted" in the affairs...
Book Synopsis The Fenian Season by : Jaroslav Petryshyn
Download or read book The Fenian Season written by Jaroslav Petryshyn and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fast paced historical thriller takes place against the background of a rising Fenian movement in the United States and the overt hostility of Washington toward the 'Canadas' immediately after the American Civil War. The Fenian Brotherhood was dedicated to the freeing of Ireland from 'British tyranny'. Conquering Britain's holdings in North America (and coincidently preventing Confederation) was their aim. A Canadian agent in Buffalo uncovers a Fenian plot against the 'life and liberties' of the United Province of Canada that was to take place on or about St. Patrick's Day, 1866. However, he meets with foul play before he can pass this information on to Gilbert McMicken, Canada's spy chief in Windsor. McMicken informs John A. MacDonald, who as Attorney-General of Canada West and the Minister of Militia Affairs, must prepare for some sort of attack. MacDonald has much on his plate and many distractions - from Confederation plans in a precarious state to a clandestine affair with Luce, a mysterious lady he had just met. McMicken sends his best agent to Buffalo to investigate while William H. Seward, the American Secretary of State, who too has a vested interest in Fenian activities, assigns a secret service agent to ferret out what the Fenians are really up to. Alas, the two agents are working at cross purposes. From Buffalo, Washington and New York to Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal, they follow a trail of intrigue and subterfuge that comes to a dramatic climax in Ottawa and Montreal....

Download or read book John C. O'Neill written by Thomas Fox and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In June 1866, an 800-man contingent of the Irish Fenian Brotherhood invaded Canada from Buffalo, New York, in an effort to free Ireland from British rule. The force was led by Irish-born John Charles O'Neill, a veteran of the Union Army's 5th Indiana Cavalry. The three-day invasion was a military success but a political failure, yet O'Neill was celebrated for his leadership and humanity. Elevated to the presidency of the Fenian Brotherhood, "General" O'Neill would again lead Irish nationalists against Canada in 1870. Jailed and later pardoned by President U.S. Grant, O'Neill left the Fenians and attempted a third, futile attack into Canada. O'Neill then became a colonizer, urging Irish Americans to abandon cities in the East to settle on the fertile plains of the West. O'Neill City, Nebraska, is named in his honor. This first full-length biography covers the rise, fall and resurgence of a remarkable figure in American and Irish history.
Book Synopsis The Ireland Anthology by : Sean Dunne

Book excerpt: Artie Cohen is a good-looking New York City cop with a taste for women and jazz and no intention of looking back to the past he left behind twenty-five years earlier in Moscow. In Red Hot Blues, he is faced with a case that leaves him no choice but to confront that past. When a former KGB general is shot dead on live TV, Artie is compelled to take the case; the general was a friend of his father's. Artie doesn't have to go far until he is led into the heart of the Brighton Beach mafia, where the most lethal weapon on the street is rumored to be an elusive substance known as Red Mercury - an atomic weapon that has the terrifying advantage of being pocket-sized. Artie stumbles upon a radioactive trail of atomic smuggling that leads all the way back to Moscow. For Artie to solve this case, he must reclaim his past and return to the home he left behind. It is in Moscow that he finds love, tragedy, and the truth.

Revels, Steven Rothman, Nancy Holder, Mark Levy (and Arlene Mantin Levy), Nicholas Utechin, and Sean M. Wright (and DeForeest B. Wright, III) In 2015, The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories burst upon the scene, featuring traditional Canonical adventures set within the correct time period, and written by many of today's leading Sherlockian authors from around the world. Those first three volumes were overwhelmingly received, and soon there were calls for additional collections. Since then, their popularity has only continued to grow, and the series is currently up to 36 massive volumes (and more in preparation!) with over 750 new Holmes adventures from over 200 contributors worldwide. Since the beginning, all royalties from these volumes have gone to the Undershaw school for special needs children, (formerly known as "Stepping Stones"), and as of mid-2022, the books have raised over $100,000 for the school, with no end in sight. From the very beginning, members of The Baker Street Irregulars stepped up to contribute, providing stories, poems, and forewords. Now, in this collection, we present something from nearly all of those previous BSI contributors and, as always, the royalties go to support the Undershaw school. These stories, poems, and forewords, along with the those in the original 36 volumes of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories, represent some of the finest new Holmesian storytelling to be found, and honor the man described by Watson as "the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known." Stories, Forewords, and Poems in this volume have previously appeared in Parts I - XXXVI of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories. All royalties from this collection are being donated for the benefit of the preservation of Undershaw, a school for special needs students located at one of the former homes of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Book Synopsis The Profane Book of Irish Comedy by : David Krause
Download or read book The Profane Book of Irish Comedy written by David Krause and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fierce mirth characterizes antic Irish comedy. To the degree to which everyone sympathizes with the need to mock repressive authority, everyone is potentially Irish. It is the Irish dramatists themselves, says David Krause, that are the true authors of the profane book of Irish comedy. The body of literature they have produced desecrates the sacred in Ireland and launches a sardonic attack on the queen of Irish nationalism, Cathleen Ni Houlihan, the old sow who, according to Joyce's tragicomic jest, tries to devour her creative farrow. Krause discusses the major works of fourteen Irish playwrights—Samuel Beckett, Brendan Behan, Dion Boucicault, William Boyle, Paul Vincent Carroll, George Fitzmaurice, Lady Gregory, Denis Johnston, Sean O'Casey, Lennox Robinson, Bernard Shaw, George Shields, J. M. Synge, and W. B. Yeats—and shows the ways in which these works are linked, emotionally and thematically, to early Gaelic literature and the tradition of the mythic pagan playboy Oisin or Usheen. As the last great pagan hero of Ireland, Oisin emerges as an archetype for the many playboys and paycocks of Irish comedy. Oisin was the antithesis of St. Patrick, the first great Christian saint of Ireland, who, condemning pleasure and threatening eternal damnation, came to represent all authority. The bearers of this dark and wild Celtic tradition, which Synge and O'Casey associated with a daimonic or barbarous impulse, laugh irreverently at their own creations. This laughter, the laughter of the culture's mythmakers, brings with it emotional relief, comic catharsis.
