In Search Of Ireland's Heroes by Carmel McCaffrey
A lively, wide-ranging exploration of Ireland’s national imagination that traces how mythic figures and historical leaders—from ancient legendary warriors and medieval kings to the rebels and revolutionaries of later centuries—have shaped Irish identity; blending storytelling with historical and cultural analysis, it examines how heroism is created, remembered and reinvented in literature, politics and popular memory, and how those stories continue to inform contemporary views of nationhood.
