This title contains quotes, quips, extracts and speeches from some of Ireland's greatest patriots. While the original Fenians were a secretive republican organisation founded by John O'Mahony, this volume seeks to broaden that moniker and to reclaim what for centuries has been used by oppressors and occupiers as a term of abuse to demean those who believe in a free Ireland. It is also an attempt to give readers a taste of the literary talent of our finest patriotic writers.From speeches in the dock and poems to extracts from memoirs and moral novels, Irish patriots produced some of the finest Irish writing. At once a record and a cultural history, "The Fenian Anthology" features excerpts from the speeches of many of Ireland's political heroes including Pearse and Emmet and extracts from such classic texts as "Knocknagow" by Charles Kickham and "The Felon's Track" by Michael Doheny.
