"The Sunshine Patriots: The 1798 Rebellion in Antrim & Down" by R.M. Sibbett Reprinted from:-"Orangeism In Ireland And Throughout The Empire" (Thynne & Co., Ltd 1938)
An understanding of the events surrounding the 1798 Rebellion in Ireland is a key to an understanding of the divided loyalties in our society today. The support for the Rrebellion by many northern Presbyterians was quickly, in historical terms, turned to support for the Crown and Constitution. R.M. Sibbett writes with an understanding of the motives of the men on both sides and does not attempt to hide the terrible deeds committed by each. His respect for honourable men from different sides is something we should emulate today.
