The Big Fellow is a historical biography written by Frederick Palmer, chronicling the life and legacy of Michael Collins, an Irish revolutionary who played a pivotal role in the fight for Irish independence from British rule. The book explores Collins' upbringing in rural Ireland, his early involvement in the Irish Republican Brotherhood, his leadership in the Easter Rising of 1916, and his subsequent involvement in the Irish War of Independence. Palmer delves into Collins' personal life, including his relationships with family, friends, and fellow revolutionaries, as well as his strategic military tactics and political ideology. The book also examines Collins' controversial decision to sign the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921, which ultimately led to the partition of Ireland and the establishment of the Irish Free State. Through extensive research and interviews with Collins' contemporaries, Palmer provides a comprehensive and insightful portrait of one of Ireland's most influential and enigmatic figures. The Big Fellow is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish history, politics, and the struggle for independence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
