Peadar O'Dowd's A History of County Galway is an enjoyable, accessible and informative study of Galway's history. A comprehensive book that begins with Galway's geological formation, O'Dowd's study of Ireland's second largest county progresses up to the present day and is the ideal book for anyone interested in the county of the Tribesmen. Galway is the largest county in the province of Connacht, both in area and population. It is divided in two by the great expanse of Lough Corrib, the largest lake in the Republic of Ireland. To the west lies one of the country's most scenic areas, the mountains of Connemara, while to the east, its fertile plains run gently towards the Shannon basin. Its capital, Galway City, stands on the banks of the River Corrib, which flows into Galway Bay. East Galway is particularly rich in ecclesiastical and monastic ruins, while Galway City has been an important port and trading centre since medieval times, conducting a vigorous trade with places as far away as Italy, Spain and France. In modern times the county has been a focus of industrial and tourist expansion and contains one of the largest Gaeltachts or Irish-speaking areas in the country. Peadar O'Dowd's fascinating history of the area traces its political, administrative, social and economic developments over the centuries. He pays particular attention in the modern period to the importance of its educational and cultural infrastructures, as well as its changing life styles in the twenty-first century. A well-known local author and historian, O'Dowd has deep knowledge of and abiding affection for Galway and its people that is abundantly clear in this authoritative yet accessible study of his native county.

In 'Pathway to Rebellion' Willie Henry traces the origins of the rebellion of 1916 in Co. Galway back over a century. He argues that the country's rebellious past encouraged the Galway Volunteers to take a stand during the Rising, when many other parts of the country failed to do so. While Galway's people did not make the same blood sacrifice as Dublin, they were not lacking in courage. Many of the men were without arms, while others only had pikes. Nevertheless, they were prepared to fight, although aware that their rebellious actions could mean death in battle or before a firing squad. Despite this they stood by their convictions and showed unquestionable commitment to the idea of a free Ireland. Following the Rising those who were captured were assaulted, subjected to verbal abuse by the public and their captors, and condemned to imprisonment. Some managed to evade capture, but were forced to go on the run. However, in the aftermath of the leaders' executions, public opinion changed dramatically and the traitors of yesterday were suddenly the heroes of today. The homecoming of those who were imprisoned was in total contrast to their departure. The entire story of Galway in 1916 is in this book, making it the definitive story of the rebellion in the west.
