Description: By Julie Kavanagh. From The New Yorker's capsule review (https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/01/03/colorization-the-irish-assassins-the-anomaly-and-people-from-my-neighborhood) : "A wrenching sense of dashed hopes hangs over this account of the Phoenix Park murders, a pair of attacks on British dignitaries in Dublin in 1882, by the Invincibles, a rogue Irish "assassination society." The murders, Kavanagh shows, derailed secret negotiations on Irish autonomy between Britain's Prime Minister William Gladstone and the Irish nationalist Charles Parnell. Kavanagh roams to America and beyond, tracing the many factors that led to the attacks." The hardcover's new from the warehouse (and blurbed by Ralph Fiennes!).
