Publisher's Synopsis
Doing My Bit For Ireland is a memoir written by Margaret Skinnider in 1917. It chronicles her experiences as a member of the Irish Republican Army during the Easter Rising of 1916. Skinnider was a Scottish woman who became involved in the Irish independence movement and joined the Irish Citizen Army. She was one of the few women who fought in the Rising, and her account provides a unique perspective on the events of that time. The book details Skinnider's training and participation in the Rising, as well as her subsequent capture and imprisonment. It also includes her reflections on the political and social conditions that led to the Rising and her hopes for the future of Ireland. Doing My Bit For Ireland is an important historical document that sheds light on the role of women in the Irish independence movement and the experiences of those who fought for Irish freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
