Produced as part of Limerick City & County Council’s Decade of Centenaries programme, Studying Revolution: Accounts of Mary Immaculate College, 1918-1923 collates primary source material to tell the story of how staff & students navigated the revolutionary period, how ordinary life was interrupted and of the times that the war quite literally arrived at the College gates.

A new book from MIC academic Dr Derek Mulcahy tells the story of Limerick’s proud and long-standing culture of civilian marching bands.
