The Atlas of the Irish Revolution is a landmark publication that will appeal to a broad readership. It features over 300 original maps, several hundred illustrations, and more than 140 contributions from leading scholars across a range of disciplines. As well as covering a myriad of military, political, socio-economic, and cultural phenomena in the pivotal years from the Home Rule Crisis of 1912 to the end of the Civil War in 1923, the Atlas also addresses underlying trends in the decades before the revolution, born amidst the carnage of the First World War. The oft-neglected roles of women, workers, Irish people in British uniform, and those who resisted the drive towards independence are all given due attention in a book that, together with the Atlas of the Great Irish Famine (2012), represents a groundbreaking contribution to the historical geography of modern Ireland. -- from dust jacket
