Volume Two: Beyond the Rising shows how the Young Irelanders, at home and in exile, were divided between those who espoused constitutional politics and those who persisted with physical force. The constitutional Young Irelanders, such as John Blake Dillon, sought incremental political change through participation in the Westminster parliament. James Stephens, Michael Doheny and John O’Mahony, the physical force men, established the Irish Revolutionary Brotherhood in Ireland and the Fenian Brotherhood in America, thereby creating the first trans-Atlantic, mass separatist movement in Irish history. Volume two is also concerned with the interaction of the exiled Young Irelanders, with the great open frontiers and emerging cities in the new worlds of Australia, North America and Canada. Charles Gavan Duffy’s premiership in Victoria, and Thomas D’Arcy McGee’s political career in Canada are assessed. In North America, the Civil War complicated matters for the exiles. Thomas Francis Meagher and his Irish Brigade were on the Union side, whereas John Mitchel supported the Southern Confederacy and slavery. The books bring the Young Irelanders from the cradle to the grave. It is the literary legacy of the Young Irelanders and their intense love of Ireland which endures.
