Description
Booker Prize winner Thomas Keneally transports us into the life of John Mitchel, one of the most controversial figures of the fight for Irish independence.
Bringing us on a vivid, page-turning odyssey from Mitchel's revolutionary origins in the depths of the Great Famine, through exile and a troubling political evolution, the master of historical fiction wrestles with the conflicts at the centre of a complicated legacy.
