This collection of ten original essays edited by Seán William Gannon (Limerick City and County Library Service) and Brian Hughes (Department of History, Mary Immaculate College) explores the experience of Limerick’s Protestant communities during the Irish revolutionary period. Authored by established and emerging scholars, they draw on a range of archival resources (including hitherto largely untapped local collections such as the archives of St Mary’s Cathedral and the Limerick Young Men’s Protestant Association, and the newly discovered Robert Donough O’Brien papers) to examine aspects of political, religious, economic, and social life in the city and county in 1912–1923. Under this aspect, the essays chart the courses taken by Limerick Protestants to meet the challenges that they faced during this time when they comprised less than 5 per cent of the county’s population.
