Ancestral Voices in Irish Politics: Judging Dillon and Parnell

Ancestral Voices in Irish Politics: Judging Dillon and Parnell

The story of Charles Stewart Parnell, one of the greatest Irish leaders of the nineteenth century and also one of the most renowned figures of the 1880s on the international stage, and John Dillon, the most celebrated of Parnell's lieutenants. As Paul Bew shows, the differences between the two men reflect both Ireland's past and its future.
