Reply #16: So, how about some links?

Let's start with the University College Cork site: CELT (Corpus of Electronic Texts). Massive amounts of information in original languages, much translated into English. Begins with the ancient heroes & martyrs, extends past Michael Collins (modern hero & martyr). //www.ucc.ie/celt/index.html

Ireland's History in Maps uses geography as its base. Good outline of history: www.rootsweb.com/~irlkik/ihm/iremaps.htm

Irish History on the Web is a fine collection of sites: http://larkspirit.com/history/

The San Patricio soldiers (in the Mexican War) are a fascinating Irish-American story. The historical plaque is in Clifden, home of John Riley. www.connemara.net/history/sanpatricios1.php



It'll take quite a while to get through all this material!
