Reviews

'In this second revised edition the meticulous Prof. Ciaran Brady, basing himself on detailed research in the primary sources for a clear view of opinion among the Irish, proposes a more benign assessment of Shane ... Like the other studies in this series, which is aimed at senior classes in school and undergraduates readers in college, as well as the general reader of history, the book has a very useful chronology of the life and times of its subject, as well as an excellent index - not always to be taken for granted these days.' J. Anthony Gaughan, The Irish Catholic, April 2016
