Home Rule and German Invasion

Home Rule and German Invasion

1910

Pamphlet

Four years before the initial approval of home rule in Ireland by the British Parliament and the contemporaneous outbreak of World War I, this extraordinary pamphlet is speculating on the likelihood of a German attack on Britain and the subsequent benefits to Ireland. During World War I, there would indeed be attempts to smuggle arms to Ireland from Germany.
