Book Overview

Thomas Davis: The Memoirs Of An Irish Patriot, 1840-1846 (1890) is a book written by Charles Gavan Duffy that tells the story of Thomas Davis, an Irish patriot who played a critical role in the struggle for Irish independence in the mid-19th century. The book is a collection of Davis's personal writings, including letters, speeches, and essays, that offer a unique insight into his life and the political climate of the time.
