This talk will look at the different ways the 1913-1923 revolutionary era and the First World War have been remembered and how that remembering has been the source of controversy. Brian Hanley is the author of a number of books including: ‘The I.R.A. 1926-36’, ‘A Guide to Irish Military Heritage’, ‘The I.R.A.: A Documentary History 1916-2005’ and is co-author of ‘The Lost Revolution: The Story of the Official I.R.A. and the Workers' Party’.

One of a series of public lectures on the revolutionary decade from 1913 to 1923 with a particular focus on the Easter Rising. Happening on the last Tuesday of each month, at 8 p.m. in Teach Diarmada, Castledermot. Entry 2 euro/members free. More events will be added to the programme over the course of 2016. Organised by Castledermot Local History Group.  Grant-aided by Kildare County Council.
