Includes bibliographical references and index.
This title provides a history of Cumann na mBan, a women's support group to the Irish Volunteers. Formed in 1914, its aims included helping the cause of Irish liberty and arming the Irish men for the defence of Ireland. In 1922, the organization overwhelmingly rejected the Treaty, resulting in a substantial split and the formation of Cumann ne Saoirse.
