- Summary:
- In this biography of Irish nationalist leader Charles Stewart Parnell, author Bew (Irish politics, Queen's University Belfast) draws on new material which has come to light in recent years to reveal new insights about Parnell's family background, his intellectual formation, and his early career in and outside of Parliament. There are also new details on his relationship with violent revolutionaries. An appendix essay speculates on what would've happened if Parnell had lived until 1918. The book is illustrated with b&w historical photos and color photos of locations and monuments. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
