A Journey Through Irish and World History

Just out from Gill – a picturesque follow-up (with fabulous illustrations by Sol Linero) to The Great Irish History Book.

A Timeline of Irish History allows the reader to look at what was happening in the wider world at the same time as significant events were taking place in Ireland. For example, the 1798 Rebellion in Ireland didn’t just happen in isolation. It probably would not have taken place without the American Revolution and the French Revolution that preceded it and spurred on the United Irishmen.
