Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "400 United Irishmen and fellow-rebels brought the spirit of Irish rebellion "down under" in the aftermath of the Irish Rebellion of 1798 - and changed Australia forever. At Castle Hill in 1804, this "army of shadows" carried on where they left off but during Bligh's overthrow in 1808, they stood back from a fight that was not theirs. The "political Irish" played a central role in the developing colony. Their professions, trades and skills made them useful as clerks, storekeepers and teachers, and fitted them to be overseers and constables, and helped bring self-sufficiency to the still-fragile colonial economy. They remained revolutionaries; only they negotiated change rather than raised warlike rebellion. Through their open defiance and quiet manipulation of authority, the harp "new strung" resonates to this day in the Australian ethos that United Irishmen helped to create." -- book cover.

Download or read book Michael Hayes written by Vivienne Keely and published by . This book was released on 2019-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Hayes born in Wexford, Ireland into a Catholic, middle-class family was transported to NSW for his part in the 1798 Rebellion. Arriving in Sydney in 1800 he prospered for a while, making a good living for his new family before falling on hard times. He drowned in 1825, aged fifty-seven, a newspaper report suggesting suicide.This book examines Hayes' life in the context of his letters to his family in Ireland. The need to remain connected to 'home' is the underlying theme of his letters. Hayes' nineteenth-century story resonates with the contemporary displacement of people throughout the world. Forced to make their way in a strange land, questions of connection remain crucial: how can precious memories be shared? Are those wrenched from their homeland remembered by those who remain behind?
