Description
The Circle And The Sword is a historical novel written by Joseph Mary Plunkett and first published in 1911. The story is set in Ireland during the late 17th century, a time when the country was under English rule and tensions were high between the native Irish and the English colonizers.The novel follows the story of two young men, Hugh O'Neill and Red Hugh O'Donnell, who are both members of the Irish nobility and are determined to resist English domination. They join forces with other Irish leaders, including the legendary warrior queen, Grace O'Malley, and form a secret society known as the Circle.The Circle is dedicated to the cause of Irish independence and uses guerrilla tactics to fight against English oppression. However, as the conflict intensifies, the Circle's tactics become more extreme and violent, leading to internal conflict and betrayal.The novel also explores the personal lives of Hugh and Red Hugh, including their romantic relationships and their struggles to balance their loyalty to their country with their duty to their families and loved ones.Overall, The Circle And The Sword is a gripping tale of rebellion, loyalty, and sacrifice set against the backdrop of a turbulent period in Irish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
