Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a captivating first-hand account of the authorââ â¢s experiences as a political prisoner in England during the 1860s. It delves into the turbulent world of Irish nationalism, a movement fueled by centuries of English oppression and a desire for independence. The authorââ â¢s narrative is set against the backdrop of the Irish famine of 1847 and the failed rebellion of 1848, events that shaped the political landscape and fueled the desire for change. The book explores the complex relationship between Irish nationalism and the Catholic Church, highlighting the authorââ â¢s personal struggles with religious authority and the internal divisions that plagued the movement. The author recounts harrowing details of his imprisonment, including solitary confinement, harsh labor conditions, and brutal treatment at the hands of prison officials. He exposes the hypocrisy and barbarity of the British prison system and paints a vivid picture of the physical and psychological toll of incarceration. Through his compelling story, the author provides a deeply personal and insightful examination of the struggles for Irish independence in the 19th century. His experiences offer a powerful glimpse into the human cost of political activism and the relentless pursuit of freedom. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
