A Short Memoir of Terence MacSwiney is a book written by Patrick Sarsfield O'Hegarty in 1922. The book is a tribute to Terence MacSwiney, an Irish nationalist who was a member of Sinn Fein and the Lord Mayor of Cork during the Irish War of Independence. MacSwiney was arrested by the British authorities and went on a hunger strike in prison, which ultimately led to his death. The memoir is a concise account of MacSwiney's life and his role in the struggle for Irish independence. O'Hegarty, who was a close friend of MacSwiney, provides a personal perspective on the man and his beliefs. He also discusses the political climate of the time and the events leading up to MacSwiney's death.The book is divided into four chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of MacSwiney's life. The first chapter discusses his early life and education, while the second chapter focuses on his involvement in the Irish nationalist movement. The third chapter details MacSwiney's time as Lord Mayor of Cork and his hunger strike, and the final chapter reflects on his legacy and impact on the Irish independence movement.Overall, A Short Memoir of Terence MacSwiney is a poignant tribute to a man who sacrificed his life for the cause of Irish independence. O'Hegarty's personal connection to MacSwiney adds depth and emotion to the book, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in Irish history and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
