A classic study of the role of the women's movement in modern Irish history
Unmanageable Revolutionaries describes how Irish women (despite their frequent omission from the history books) have always played a key role in the struggle for independence. The author focuses on three pivotal Irish nationalist women's organisations the Ladies Land League, Inghinidhe na hEireann and Cumann na mBan - to show that women have always been a driving force in Irish political history.
