"The Parnellite Split" examines one of the most dramatic and consequential events in late 19th-century Irish history. The fall of Charles Stewart Parnell, the leader of the Irish Parliamentary Party, following the O'Shea divorce scandal, precipitated a deep and lasting split within the Irish nationalist movement. This book delves into the complex political, social, and personal factors that contributed to the crisis and its aftermath.
Exploring the intense debates and loyalties that defined the era, "The Parnellite Split" analyzes the impact of the scandal on the pursuit of Home Rule and the future of Irish politics. It sheds light on the key figures involved, the strategies they employed, and the enduring legacy of this pivotal moment in Ireland's struggle for self-governance.
