Description
At the beginning of the First World War, many Irish men were enticed to enlist by the promise of home rule, while others may have joined up to secure a decent living; however, by 1918 and the end of the war, the political landscape in Ireland had changed radically and those who had served in the British army found themselves relegated to the shadows of a war that was rarely discussed. In 1919, the National University of Ireland compiled a war list of all students, graduates, and staff of University College Cork, University College Dublin, and University College Galway, who had died or served in the Great War. As part of the NUI's Decade of Centenary programme, the original Honour Roll is reprinted here along with a collection of explanatory essays.
