Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maud Gonne is often seen as a beautiful adjunct to famous men: as the muse and unrequited love of W.B. Yeats, the estranged wife of nationalist hero John MacBride and the mother of human rights activist Sean MacBride. However, she was an important revolutionary figure in her own right. This collection of the political writings of Maud Gonne sets out to broaden our understanding of female activism during the foundation of the Irish state and to appreciate the intellectual work of someone whose political engagement has been neglected. It examines the major campaigns of Gonne's political career: amnesty, children and the poor, the cause of Ireland, transnational solidarity, the literary revival, and the failures of the Free State. This is a passionate account of Irish wrongs and a fitting testament to a life dedicated to political freedom and social justice. -- Publisher description.
