The Irish Assassins

Conspiracy, Revenge and the Phoenix Park Murders That Stunned Victorian England

Julie Kavanagh
In 1882 Lord Frederick Cavendish and Thomas Burke were ambushed and stabbed to death with modified surgical knives in Dublin’s Phoenix Park. The killers were the Invincibles, a militant republican faction. Julie Kavanagh traces the events that led up to the murders, the damaging effects they had on contemporary Anglo-Irish relations, and the ensuing investigations led by John Mallon, whose success won him a reputation as the ‘Irish Sherlock Holmes'. Slightly off-mint.
