Summary

This previously unpublished autobiography, written between 1895 and 1897, focuses on O¿Brien¿s young life as an itinerant Irish nationalist. From a Cork merchant¿s family, he was inspired by Fintan Lawlor to become a revolutionary but was frustrated by lack of 'opportunities¿ to fight. He briefly studied in a seminary and worked in the family business before studying medicine in Ireland and Paris, where he became friendly with leading Fenians and the American painter James Whistler. He then became a mercenary in Nicaragua, and later fought for the Confederacy in the American Civil War. He returned to Ireland and joined the 1867 Fenian uprising. Edited by Jennifer M. Regan.
