Rich with description, action, and history, this novel recounts the brutal events in Ireland during the Easter Rising from the point of view of a likeable and sympathetic character. I learned a lot of information from the research Llywelyn put into this. It is always amazing to read about an outnumbered few becoming motivated enough to take on an entire country. Recommended for history buffs and lovers of all things Irish.
