Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life, Times and Labours of Robert Owen
Lord Edward Fitzgerald, he made his escape to the Wicklow Hills, where a number of the insurgents, gathering head, fought a skirmish with a body of tr00ps by whom they were defeated when my grand father, travelling by night and hiding during the day, made his way farther south. Ultimately he became a small employer of labour, in the fustian-cutting trade, in Bandon, where he married, and where my father was born in the year 1811.
