At the Coalface
Fr Anthony Gaughan has experienced many aspects of life in the Archdiocese of Dublin during the latter half of the 20th century. His recollections provide an insight into the lives and works of Dublin priests during that period, offering sketches of colleagues, parishes and clerical studenthood.
The Memoirs of Constable Jeremiah Mee, RIC
Constable Jeremiah Mee is noted in the annals of Irish history for being the spokesman for a group of RIC men in Listowel, who stood up to their divisional commissioner, Colonel Smyth, and refused to accept his policy of shooting any 'suspicious-looking' Irishman on sight. This unique record, based on Mee's memoirs, presents a first-hand account of life in the RIC from 1910 to 1920. It chronicles the changing relationship between the Irish people and the members of the force, gives a valuable insight into the changing attitudes of many RIC men during the War of Independence and includes a comprehensive account of the 1920 Listowel mutiny and its aftermath. It also provides an account of Mee's work for the First Dáil's department of labour where he worked after leaving the RIC and his involvement in the Belfast Boycott.
Memoirs of Senator James G. Douglas (1887-1954), Concerned Citizen
Senator James G. Douglas, a Dublin businessman and Quaker, was an Irish nationalist active in the Irish White Cross 1920-22. He was appointed by Michael Collins to the committee which prepared drafts for the first Irish constitution in 1922. He was a Member of Seanad Eireann 1922-36, 1938-43 and 1944-54. These previously unpublished memoirs were written in the late 1940s and relate his involvement in the events of 1916 to 1926. He casts fresh light on some of these events - revealing for example his secret meetings with de Valera in the closing stages of the Civil War.
