Atlas of the Irish Revolution: Atlas of the Irish Revolution

The Atlas of the Irish Revolution is a definitive resource that brings to life this pivotal moment in Irish history and nation-building. Published to coincide with the centenary of the Easter Rising, this comprehensive and visually compelling volume brings together all of the current research on the revolutionary period, with contributions from leading scholars from around the world and from many disciplines. A chronological and thematically organized treatment of the period serves as the core of the Atlas, enhanced by over 400 color illustrations, maps and photographs. This academic tour de force illuminates the effects of the Revolution on Irish culture and politics, both past and present, and animates the period for anyone with a connection to or interest in Irish history.

“"With just under 1000 pages, weighing 5kg - and featuring hundreds of maps, photographs, paintings and other illustrations - this spectacular volume is the most comprehensive treatment of Ireland's revolutionary years ever produced."- Irish Examiner”

"Atlas of the Irish Revolution [...] aims to do for the revolutionary period what the award-winning Atlas of the Great Irish Famine did for the second half of the 19th century. It will combine cutting-edge 'big issue' research with stories of people, provinces and parishes."-The Irish Times
