Beschreibungen
This book explores the lives and deaths of over 300 men, women and children buried in Dublin's Glasnevin Cemetery who died due to the War of Independence and Civil War. Detailed research brings their stories together for the first time with first-hand accounts of those who witnessed and participated in these historical conflicts. Through the exploration of seemingly ordinary burial records, extraordinary events are revealed. Unfolded are stories of ambushes, informers, assassinations, spies, executions, raids, mutiny and bombings, together with ordinary members of the public, caught up in extraordinary events.
Conor Dodd is a historian for Dublin Cemeteries Trust and manages its heritage and education department within the Experience Glasnevin visitor centre in Glasnevin Cemetery. He is a graduate of University College Dublin and Maynooth University and is currently studying at Trinity College Dublin.
