Ireland under Coercion

William Henry Hurlbert

Sinopse

In "Ireland under Coercion," William Henry Hurlbert presents a compelling examination of the political climate in Ireland during the late 19th century, particularly focusing on the coercive measures employed by the British government against Irish nationalists. The narrative unfolds through a blend of journalistic rigor and literary craftsmanship, offering readers a vivid portrayal of the social and political upheaval. Hurlbert employs a poignant style, interweaving personal anecdotes and broader socio-political critiques, thus placing the Irish struggle within the global context of imperialism and governance. Hurlbert, an American journalist and a keen observer of international affairs, was profoundly influenced by the turmoil he witnessed firsthand during his visit to Ireland. His experiences amidst the fervent nationalist sentiments and oppressive legislation catalyzed his determination to shed light on the injustices faced by the Irish people. This background not only informs his analysis but also instills a strong sense of empathy for the plight of those advocating for Irish self-determination. This book is indispensable for readers interested in Irish history, British imperial politics, or the evolution of national identity. Hurlbert's incisive insights and eloquent prose invite readers into a crucial historical moment, offering a nuanced understanding of the complexities surrounding Irish independence and the broader implications of coercion on civil liberties.

Commando - A Boer Journal of the...

Deneys Reitz

In 1899, Deneys Reitz, then aged seventeen, enlisted in the Boer army to fight the British. He had learnt to ride, shoot and swim almost as soon as he could walk. When he fought as a member several Boer commandos, he made full use of these skills and the endurance he acquired during the war.  
He was involved in major actions, such as the Battle of Spion Kop, and he interacted with prominent political and military figures of the time, such as President Paul Kruger, Boer generals Piet Joubert, Louis Botha, Koos de la Rey, Christiaan Beyers, Jan Smuts and British commander Lord Kitchener.  
Reitz forged a strong personal and political friendship with Smuts after the war, one built one reciprocal respect. 
Commando is more than a historical document. With prose that captures both the brutality and the beauty of war, Reitz weaves a narrative that resonates with authenticity, transcending time. 
As relevant today as when it was first penned, Commando has become a South African classic and stands as a testament to the indomitable human spirit in the face of adversity.
