Overview: This book is a selection of articles from the Royal Irish Academy’s Dictionary of Irish Biography, dealing with 42 men and women whose careers, in one way or another, were deeply involved with the Easter Rising of 1916. The biographies selected compose an inclusively broad picture of the Rising,representing the spectrum of personalities and perspectives that were involved in the event. The volume provides a balanced view of the Easter Rising and includes not only the insurgents (and some others) killed during the Rising, but also: women who were involved as soldiers or in supporting capacities, nationalist leaders who opposed the Rising, senior figures in the British administration in Ireland in 1916, members of the British army that suppressed the Rising, and historians who made considerable contributions to the scholarly debate on 1916. Each biography is illustrated with an original drawing by artist David Rooney.
