Ah, the Doomed Rebellion. How romantic. A Last Stand against the Oppressors. The Fight to the Death. The Dawn of the New Age.
..and many other romantic cliches. ;-)
It's always more romantic on paper, innit?
Nice summary, BTW. Been to Kilmainham Gaol and seen the GPO..::shakes head::
Then again, the Scots still remember Culloden Moor and other sad things. There must be something about our human brains that makes sad things stick around more.
