Ten Women of the 1916 Rising - Paperback

by Derry Dillon (Illustrator), Ann Carroll (Author)

Where did it all begin, the struggle of these ten women for Irish freedom?

What made them support the Rising in 1916?

The answer lies in their childhoods.

A skating accident, a Fenian nanny, the loss of a parent, poverty, tales of the Famine, a close friendship, and a sense of exile - such were the early experiences that formed them and made them what they were: brave, adventurous and ready to risk their lives
