Summary
"A classic account, written by one of the inmates, of the Welsh internment camp where the 1916 rebels were held that was first published in 1917. For eight months following the Easter Rising over 1,800 Irish rebels were imprisoned in Frongoch, a former whiskey distillery in North Wales. It soon became a University of Revolution and among its notable alumni were Michael Collins & Richard Mulcahy. This contemporary account of experience in the camp was an important part of the propaganda to win support for the nationalist cause in the lead up to the Irish War of Independence." --Publisher description.
