About the author
Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa
1831–1915
A fierce Irish nationalist and Fenian organizer, he spent years in prison and exile yet remained a powerful symbol of resistance. His funeral in Dublin in 1915, marked by Pádraig Pearse’s famous graveside speech, became one of the turning points in modern Irish memory.
