Overview
Fighting in the New World is the only way to liberate the Old Dart. 1861, a decade after the Famine, Seamus O'Farrell and his family still suffer from the chokehold of the British Empire. After a disastrous and pathetic attempt at staging a revolt against the local landlord, Seamus sees no alternative but to escape to America where he will join the fight against the Confederates, gain military experience, and return to liberate Ireland with the might of the Union Army's Irish Brigade. Thrown into America's bloodiest battles, Seamus soon learns there are enemies on all sides. Especially his own. Rebel in Blue is a powerful novel of love, life and death, in times and places that shaped the futures of individuals and nations in ways that could never have been foreseen. It provides an action-packed, moving, empathetic account of one man's battle against despair along with a riveting account of the Irish Brigade in the American Civil War.
