The British milieu in which Parnell lived and worked

In brief

Alan F. Parkinson explores the life of Charles Stewart Parnell in late Victorian Britain in his book, Parnell’s Other Island. Published by Eastwood Books, the work examines the British environment where the prominent leader lived and worked.

The book title references George Bernard Shaw’s 1904 play, John Bull’s Other Island, but reverses the original concept. While Shaw focused on Ireland, Parkinson focuses on Parnell's experiences within Britain.
