His most recent book, The End of Outrage (Oxford University Press, 2017), is a study of land-grabbing and informing in west Donegal in the wake of the Famine; it was Irish Times Irish Nonfiction Book of the Year and the American Conference for Irish Studies awarded it the Donnelly Prize for Books in History and Social Science. His other books include Subjects Lacking Words? The Grey Zone of the Great Famine (Quinnipiac University Press, 2017) and, with David Dickson, he edited Hugh Dorian’s memoir of the Famine in north Donegal, The Outer Edge of Ulster (Lilliput, 2000; University of Notre Dame Press, 2001). He was a founding editor, with the critic Seamus Deane, of Field Day Review, a journal of political and literary culture. Douglas M Sinclair Local historian, was born in the old part of Lerwick, Shetland into a seafaring family and has lived there all his life. Douglas’ early years were spent roaming the maze of closes, narrow lanes and piers of the town’s south end and listening to the stories told by the people who lived there. Tales of smugglers, whalers, sailors and fishermen who frequented the town over the centuries fascinated him. The boom days of the herring curing industry has been of particular interest and in fact he worked in a fish factory to earn money when a student. Following a career in the National Health Service, Douglas became a tourist guide and a local magazine columnist writing about Old Lerwick. He recently had a book with a selection of these articles published and continues to research the history of his home town. Ann Marie Saunders Was born in Glasgow to Irish parents and has resided in Lerwick for over 24 years. She became interested especially in the story of the Herring Gutters of the 19th century and will relate the recollections of Willie Halcrow. Annie O Donnell Annie hails from Arlands near Burtonport, Co Donegal and was among the young people who emigrated in the 1950’s to work in the tattie fields of Scotland. She has written a number of books about her life in the Rosses and on emigration. Her first book ‘The Tattie Hoker’ was followed by ‘A Donegal Sunset’ and she is currently writing a third book. BIOGRAPHY OF SPEAKERS Lawerence Lanty & Kathleen Nancy Gallagher Both hail from Arranmore Island and they too were young migrant workers. They will recall their experiences of working in the Tattie Fields and Tunnels of Scotland and beyond. Frank Gallagher Born in Scotland to Rosses parents, Frank will relate the memoirs of his Father and late Mother’s experiences of following the shoals of herring all along the coastline of Scotland down into Great Yarmouth.

Within in the parish of Gweedore there an enormous amount of bouldering and highball rock dotted all over the region, it is simply a case of stopping the car whenever you see rock from the road and going for a look.

Reflection Unexpected moments It was an important day for this little family, when Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the Temple in Jerusalem. Did they expect everything to go smoothly, or had they already had to let go of some of their dreams and plans? After all, the story of Jesus’ birth had already been unusual, not to mention the shepherds turning up to visit the newborn Messiah. Still, they could not have expected two elderly people to suddenly appear in the Temple with a message about their child – that he was going to do great things but also would be rejected and cause great pain to his mother.

In writing this thesis, I hope that I have, in some way, managed to explain the reasons for this cultural diversity. This thesis would not have been written without the assistance of my two supervisors, Professor Mike Cronin and Professor Matthew Taylor. Professor Cronin’s assistance and knowledge has transformed the way I think about history, society and sport while Professor Taylor’s expertise has also made me look at the writing of sports history and the development of society in a different way.

    World War I in 1916

    MAJOR EVENTS AFFECTING THE COUNTY IN 1916 In a front line trench, France, World War I (Library of Congress, Washington) World War I in 1916 When war was declared on 4 August 1914, there were already over 25,000 Irishmen serving in the regular British Army with another 30,000 Irishmen in the reserve. As most of the great European powers were drawn into the War, it spread to European colonies all over the world. Donegal men found that they were fighting not only in Europe but also in Egypt and Mesopotamia as well as in Africa and on ships in the North Sea and in the Mediterranean. 1916 was the worst year of the war, with more soldiers killed this year than in any other year. By the end of 1916, stalemate on land had truly set in with both sides firmly entrenched. By now, the belief that the war would be ‘over by Christmas’ was long gone. Hope of a swift end to the war was replaced by knowledge of the true extent of the sacrifice that would have to be paid in terms of loss of life. Recruitment and Enlisting Recruitment meetings were held all over the County. In 1916, the Department of Recruiting in Ireland wrote to Bishop O’Donnell, in Donegal, requesting: “. that recruiting meetings might with advantage be held outside the Churches . after Mass on Sundays and Holidays.” 21 MAJOR EVENTS AFFECTING THE COUNTY IN 1916 Men from all communities and from all corners of County Donegal enlisted. They enlisted in the three new Army Divisions: the 10th (Irish), 16th (Irish) and the 36th (Ulster), which were established after the War began.
