Synopsis
Even those who know a great deal about the Easter Rising may not know that there were temporary ceasefires in the St. Stephen's Green area, to allow the park attendants to feed the Green's ducks. Few know that the first shots of the rising were actually fired near Portlaoise and not in Dublin or indeed that both sides issued receipts: the Rebels for food, the British for handcuffs. 50 Things You Didn't Know About 1916 is a treasure trove of trivia and information that will appeal to the avid student of 1916 and the casual reader. ""This book is filled with stories about incredible brave people in extraordinary times."" Irish American News
