Though inspired by the noble principles of liberty, equality and brotherhood, the United Irishmen's rebellion of 1798 plunged Ireland into a vortex of violence and bloodshed, the effects of which can still be felt today. The ferocity of the insurrection and the manner of its suppression have prompted the pens of both eulogists and detractors.
