A video interview/ documentary on The Dublin Lockout of 1913 with Padraig Yeates, a leading historian on the subject. He has written extensively on it and is the author of 'Lockout: Dublin 1913'. This Interview, conducted by two UCD students Aoife O’Neill and Michael Smalle, was filmed in Liberty Hall and is being used by the 1913 committee in their program of events.We'll sail be the tide....aarghhhh !!

Nearly finished the book - very good, if you're interested in the Lockout and Dublin of that era in general. It's a huge book, I still have about 5 chapters to go, but so far, Jim Larkin is looking more like an egotistical fantasist than a working-class hero, pursuing his "Fiery Cross" campaign in Britain while Connolly and the Dublin Trades Council are left at home to try to sort things out......
