'The enemy is within our gates ... Truly, Irishmen, ye do not sufficiently realise the importance of the war on which we are engaged.'
These are the words of Éamonn Ceannt, who, despite being one of the signatories of the Proclamation of 1916, is still one of the less well-known characters of recent Irish history.
A founding member of the Irish Volunteers, he was commandant of the Fourth Battalion, which occupied and held the South Dublin Union against overwhelming odds during the Easter Rising, until given the order to surrender by Patrick Pearse.
This surrender led to Ceannt's trial and execution for the cause he loved, a price he accepted with courage and
fortitude. Éamonn Ceannt: Supreme Sacrifice provides an intimate portrait of the life of one of Ireland's great revolutionary heroes.
