When Dubliner Edward Barrymore falls into the sea off Ballygally
Head in north east Ulster, he thinks his end is nigh. Yet, from the
darkness comes help in the form of Henry O'Halloran and his
beguiling granddaughter, Ellen. Edward is immediately smitten by
the beauty of the fair colleen and is enraptured to find she feels
the same, but their happiness and that of their families and their
country is threatened. Insurgency and rebellion are approaching and
Ellen's grandfather, Edward's life-saver, is at the vanguard of the
United men in this part of the country. Were the clouds of war not
frightening enough, Ellen is also pursued by a monstrous cad who
thinks nothing of having her beloved Edward murdered so he may take
her for his own. In the dark of the night, when men with pikes will
march against their royal masters, when cowards will skulk away and
heroes rise, when neighbour will turn on neighbour and many a good
man will fall, can love remain true, will honour repay its debts
and what will become of O'Halloran, The Insurgent Chief? With
forewords by Stephen Dornan, Ian Hooper, David Hume MBE, Angeline
King, Stephen McCracken and Claire Mitchell. A re-publishing of the
1824 classic - a tale of two hearts united as Ireland rips herself
apart. Note: The main body text of this work is in the Public
Domain.
