“The author succeeds in her aim of providing an in-depth study of the interrelationship between Great War remembrance in Ireland and the larger political actions that shaped it. … Link’s writing is clear and succinct and … serve as an accessible point of research for scholars and students alike. This book serves as a large stepping stone in the discussions that have emerged about Ireland and its relationship with the conflict of 1914–1918.” (Meaghan Landrigan-Buttle, Canadian Journal of Irish Studies, Vol. 43, 2021)“Link has produced a useful volume that both examines and raises important questions about an extremely complex aspect of Irish culture and identity. She makes good use of contemporary newspaper sources and is careful to highlight the editorial perspective of key publications. Her use of Bureau of Military History accounts adds some very useful material covering the Anglo-Irish and Irish Civil Wars. … advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and active scholarsalike will find it accessible and useful.” (Jason Myers, H-Net Reviews Humanities and Social Sciences, March, 2020)
