- PublicationBritish Military Recruitment in Ireland during the Crimean War, 1854-56Ireland has a diverse military historiography, principally within the confines of the British Army. Much has been written to date in relation to Ireland’s relationship with that service, particularly in recent years and with a focus upon the Great War.

The event is set within both a heretofore lacking Irish social and political context and the broader context of British Army mutinies as a whole.
