A fascinating new book documenting Mayo’s role in the fight for independence during the early 1900s will be launched by An Taoiseach Enda Kenny this evening, Friday March 9, at Castlebar Library at 8pm. The book, The Flame and the Candle - War in Mayo 1919 - 1924, by Dominic Price, dispenses with the myth that little or nothing happened in Mayo during Ireland’s fight for independence and instead highlights the fascinating story of the Mayo men and women who were active during the troubled period of the War of Independence and the Civil War – a story largely untold.
