NEW TITLES July–December 2011 1 From the Earth, a Cry The Story of John Boyle O’Reilly Ian Kenneally John Boyle O’Reilly (1844–1890) is one of Ireland’s most remarkable and least known historical figures. An undercover Fenian while ostensibly a proud member of the British army, he was convicted of treason in 1866 and was transported to Australia. After a daring escape on an American whaler, he settled in Boston and worked at the Boston Pilot where he became editor and joint owner. But what really made O’Reilly’s name were his journalism and newspaper campaigns. This is the first complete study of O’Reilly’s short, extraordinary life. 978-1848891319 • Biography • PB 384 pp • 216 x 138 mm • €17.99/£14.99 • August Black & white photos and maps Mick Mackey Hurling Legend in a Troubled County Henry Martin From 1933 to 1940 Limerick hurlers dominated the game and Mick Mackey was key to their success.
