Pro Patria V2: The Autobiography of an Irish Conspirator (1883) is a memoir written by William Mackay. The book is a personal account of Mackay's involvement in the Irish Republican movement during the late 19th century. Mackay was a member of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, a secret society dedicated to the overthrow of British rule in Ireland. The book begins with Mackay's childhood in Ireland and his early political awakening. He describes his involvement in the Fenian movement, a precursor to the Irish Republican Brotherhood, and his participation in the failed uprising of 1867. Mackay then details his time in prison and his subsequent escape to the United States, where he continued to work for Irish independence.Mackay's account provides a unique perspective on the Irish Republican movement, as he was intimately involved in its inner workings. He describes the organization and tactics of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, as well as its relationship with other nationalist groups. Mackay also discusses his personal relationships with other key figures in the movement, including John Devoy and Michael Davitt.Throughout the book, Mackay expresses his deep commitment to the cause of Irish independence and his belief in the righteousness of the Republican movement. He also reflects on the personal sacrifices he made for the cause, including his time in prison and his separation from his family.Pro Patria V2: The Autobiography of an Irish Conspirator is an important historical document that sheds light on a pivotal moment in Irish history. Mackay's personal account provides valuable insight into the motivations and actions of those involved in the Republican movement, and helps to contextualize the struggle for Irish independence.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
