Theobald Wolfe Tone (1763-98) is remembered as a firebrand
revolutionary who was the founding father of Irish nationalism, and
who committed suicide on the eve of his planned execution in Dublin
for treason. This two-volume autobiography, completed after his
death by his son, was published in Washington in 1826. It contains
accounts of his adventurous life and his key role in the foundation
of the Society of United Irishmen in 1791, as well as extracts from
his journals, letters, and political works. Volume 2 describes his
activities in France, including his plans for the liberation of
Ireland by a French invasion, and also his capture, trial and
death. An appendix, written by Tone's wife and son, gives the story
of his family from 1798 up to the point at which William Wolfe Tone
left the French army in 1815 and emigrated to America.
