About this title

Synopsis

The History Of The Late Grand Insurrection Or Struggle For Liberty In Ireland by Edward Hay offers a comprehensive, source-rich narrative of the Irish insurrection of 1798, with emphasis on the County of Wexford. It assembles extracts from Stephens’ and Hay’s accounts, prefaced by an American editor’s introduction, and includes the celebrated speeches and appendices that illuminate the war’s causes, campaigns, and aftermath. The work chronicles major engagements from Vinegar Hill to Enniscorthy, Ross, Wexford, Ballinamuck, and Castlebar, detailing the brutality and heroism on all sides. It incorporates the “Speeches” of Edward Sweetman, trials and executions of leaders such as Harvey, Roche and Grogan, proclamations, and the social upheaval produced by martial law, mass arrests, and the siege of towns. It also discusses the political context—Britain’s union with Ireland, Catholic emancipation, opposition to French intervention, and the broader consequences for Irish liberty. The volume’s compilation of primary documents and narrative perspectives makes it a significant, though partisan, historical account of a seminal struggle for Irish liberty.
