#Otd 1916: Patrick Pearse wrote a last letter to his mother from Kilmainham jail. "You must not grieve for all this. We have preserved Ireland’s honour and our own. Our deeds of last week are the most splendid in Ireland’s history." Maxwell suppressed it. https://t.co/swmrW8GcYi

Was about to arrange a visit to the NLI to view the minute books of the ISRP only to discover they've gone and scanned all five volumes and put them online. This is brilliant -book 3 of 5 here - https://t.co/8KPkGHPEVW

@ConorMacHistory Thanks for a fascinating talk

[Irish Revolutionary History @IrishRevHistory]

@AlwynOllieMcKee Thanks for this suggestion, it seems like a really interesting angle on the events of 1798 and how they are remembered.

[Irish Revolutionary History @IrishRevHistory]

I usually focus on the 20th century revolutionary era (circa 1912-24) but in a couple of weeks my Labour history group (based in England) will be discussing the 1798 Irish rebellion. Can anyone recommend any decent books I could read in preparation?

[Irish Revolutionary History @IrishRevHistory]

@1798Casualty Thanks for all your suggestions! That one looks like a pretty good introductory overview and is also available quite cheaply on Amazon

I know there’s plenty of sexism in Irish rebel songs of course.

[Irish Revolutionary History @IrishRevHistory]

I’ve always thought the line ”I know it's hard for you my love to ever understand
the love I bear for these brave men,my love for this dear land”,in the song Grace,a bit sexist. How about ”I know it's hard for you my love,but I know you understand” #irishhistory #irishrebelsongs
