“What really makes the book extremely significant is that it contains contemporary accounts of the events that took place that fateful day on Vinegar Hill from people who witnessed it. It gives a remarkable insight into the battle as it unfolded and gives a fascinating look at what happened that day in June 1798 … an invaluable addition to the collection of anyone interested in Wexford and Irish history” Brendan Keane, Enniscorthy Guardian, 24 August 2021

“Bountiful praise is owed to the editors and contributors to this fine volume, to the bodies and agencies that have facilitated the research, to the local community past and present for its devotion to preserving both the memory and the landscape of the longest day, and to Four Courts Press, the publishing house to which Irish scholarship remains hugely indebted.” TADHG O’KEEFFE, The Journal of Irish Archaeology, Vol. 31 (2022)
