On Easter Sunday, 23 April 1916, the seven men of the Irish Republican Brotherhood's military council put their names to the Proclamation of the Irish Republic, declaring themselves to be the provisional government of an entity that claimed the allegiance of every Irishman and Irishwoman. In doing so, each of them had knowingly signed his own death warrant. Today there is an increasing recognition that it's time for an honest discussion of the Rising and its legacy. Distinguished historian Ruth Dudley Edwards assesses how Ireland's founding fathers came to espouse violence, how their lives converged and whether they had a coherent vision for Ireland or if they were, as some now allege, a collection of fanatical misfits and failures. A challenge to those who have eulogized these men and used them as political weapons throughout the twentieth century, The Seven is a brilliant and thought-provoking examination of who the founding fathers of the Irish Republic really were.
