Coiscéim 2003

Bhí Aodh Ó Coirbhin rannpháirteach i ngluaiseacht na Poblachta ó chláraigh sé sna Fianna roimh Éirí Amach sa Cásca 1916. Bhí sé lárnach i ngluaiseacht na Gaeilge ó thuaidh ach go háirithe agus i gCumann Lúthchleas Gael. Tá scéal Aodha sa leabhar seo agus scéal a mhuintire, ó aimsir Phlandáil Uladh. Aedín, iníon le hAodha, a bhailigh an seanchas agus a chuir na scéalta in eagar.

Aodh Ó Coirbhin has been involved in the republican movement since he enrolled in the Fianna shortly before the Easter Rising. He played a leading role in the Irish language movement in the North and in the GAA. His story and that of his ancestors is told here by his daughter Aedín.
