Maud Gonne is part of Irish history: her founding of the Daughters of Ireland, in 1900, was the key that effectively opened the door of twentieth-century politics to Irish women.

This book is very informative in regards to her work for the Irish cause. In the preface of the book it is explained why she did not go into detail about her daughter, or some others that she was close to, because she thought it would hurt them. This is understandable given the time period when it was written. It also does not go into her work with the Golden Dawn, but she does mention it briefly.
