Originally published in 1996, with a fascinating introduction by Bernadette McAliskey, Ruth Taillon’s ground-breaking study of the role played by Irish women in 1916 was the first book to address this issue, and Tara Press is proud to present a fresh new edition – published on 24th April, 2018, on the 102nd Anniversary of the Rebellion. .
The Women of 1916 shows how women took part in virtually every aspect of the work before and during the insurrection and shared the sorrows and deprivations which followed. It names almost 200 women and gives – often in their own words – the details of their involvement in this historic event. Author and historian Ruth Taillon brings them out of the footnotes of Irish history. To purchase this title, see any of the websites below:

This title couldn’t be more appropriate and timely for Spring, with is worthy and positive theme.
Crossing Borders explores what happens in terms of culture and traditions when people move geographically or are forcibly displaced into new environments due to war or other reasons. Not only must the newly arrived group experience a new culture, but communities in a host country need to embrace the arrival of a new culture. It is that coming together which inspires the book: at a time when this subject is more important than ever in our world.
Crossing Borders provides a refreshing viewpoint in an informed but accessible way. Both authors currently work in academic backgrounds and have completed extensive research in the subject, but – importantly – they have both spent years in practical application of their metiers – Fatumo is a nurse and Jenny a physiotherapist. Check back soon for the confirmed launch date.
