A timely addition to the Citadel 100 Series, here is a ranking of
the most prominent Irish figures in history -- in order of
influence -- a list that is certain to arouse controversy.
First place goes to St. Patrick, who was not born in Ireland,
but was instrumental in defining its culture, and second and third
to Eamon de Valera and Michael Collins, both shapers of modern
Ireland.
The rest, selected from Celtic times up to today, are the source
of the many fascinating stories that make up this lively
volume.
For those curious about the Irish and scholars researching the
mixed nature of Irish life and culture, The Irish 100 will prove
invaluable.
