All this happened, more or less

A graphic novel telling a thrilling tale of passion, courage and determination. Michael Collins was a hero in life, and in death his legend continues to grow. Joining the IRB in London, he took his place in the GPO at Easter 1916, then created the Intelligence network that won freedom from British rule.

In this illuminating new book, Manchan Magan sets out on a journey in our ancestors' footsteps to uncover the ancient myths and stories that have shaped our national identity, embedded in the strata of land that have endured through millennia - from ice ages through to famines and floods.

Join historian Myles Dungan as he takes you on an historical trip back in time to visit the Ancient Celts. Travel on a famine ship or join the 1916 rebels in the GPO. Discover leaders, thinkers and fighters and learn how our ancestors lived and worked. With clear text and bright illustrations, this book is for anyone who wants to understand more about Ireland, its history and its people.
