Abstract

Of all the groups associated with the First World War and 1916, the National Volunteers, those who sided with Redmond in September 1914, have arguably been the most neglected by historians. This article challenges the general presumption that they all trooped off to war in 1914 with the result that the National Volunteers disappeared from the historical narrative. It provides an outline of the trajectory of the Redmondite Volunteers before, during and after 1916.
