Numerous scholars assess the legacy of Sir Roger Casement, who came to prominence for his work on human rights abuses in the Congo and South America. He's held the status of a folk hero and martyr, as a humanitarian turned republican organiser who was stripped of his knighthood in 1911 and executed for treason in 1916.

"Roger Casement was in many ways the ablest of the Irish revolutionary leaders. His talents were of the highest order, his intellect cool, his perseverance unconquerable and his knowledge of world affairs profound. No man in troubled times ever rose to lasting greatness but by steady adherence to principle. In this view Casement's character and career possess an interest and an importance far beyond that of any individual. He was the incarnation of a principle: the right of every people to manage its own affairs. 'Every people ' he said, 'has a right to live its own life, provided that it works thereby no grievous wrong on its neighbours. England has that right; but she has no right to insist that another country shall adopt her mode of life, and to break them on the wheel if they resist.' As a policy, he was convinced that Irish freedom could not be attained without fighting for it. Philosophers and statesmen may be inclined to dispute these concepts but none can deny to Casement the merit of having steadily adhered to them in his reasonings and followed them out with invincible constancy in his conduct. Throughout every line of these letters of Roger Casement, which appear in this book, burns the bright flame of his intense love for his country. They shed a brilliant light on almost all the stirring and critical scenes of the times, and should constitute a valuable contribution to a period and aspect of Irish history as yet imperfectly understood."--Book jacket.

Prelude to the Easter Rising casts light upon the clandestine activities of Sir Roger Casement in Imperial Germany from 1914 to 1916. German military intelligence and the Imperial Foreign Office had far-reaching plans to use the Irish in the war against Britain. Radical Irish-American leaders were behind Casement's mission to Berlin. It took some time for the highly sensitive and idealistic Casement to realize that neither the German General Staff nor the Imperial Chancellor was able or willing to lend full military support to the Irish. When Casement began to see that the rising would be a bloody massacre, he left for Ireland to halt the fatal development and, if necessary, sacrifice his own honour and life. The carefully edited documents contained in this volume, mostly from the German Foreign Office archives in Bonn, present a full record of Casement's activities prior to Easter 1916. Over 80 years later, these papers have lost none of their emotional intimacy.

Born in Dublin in 1864 and brought up as a Protestant, Roger Casement began his extraordinary career as one of Stanley's volunteers in the Congo Free State. During his time in Africa, he exposed King Leopold II's exploitation of the natives and went on to reveal the ruthlessness of the British in South America, for which he received a knighthood. In Germany after the outbreak of World War I, he claimed Ireland's right to independent nationhood; he returned to Ireland in 1916, was captured, taken to London, tried, and hanged as a traitor. To further discredit him, the British government released what purported to be his diaries, which contained details of promiscuous homosexual activities. In this absorbing study, first published in 1973, Brian Inglis explores the contradictions--political, religious, and personal--of a man whose life posed questions that continue to be asked today.

One Bold Deed of Open Treason describes the astonishing journey by Roger Casement to Germany in 1914, via New York and Norway. Arriving into Berlin under a false identity, Casement entered a space of conspiracy and subterfuge. Through his vivid and gripping diary entries, a picture emerges of a man caught in the crossfire of international events and spiralling towards a tragic denouement. In recording his daily thoughts, emotions and movements, Casement chronicles his despair at the conflict he witnessed, his hopeless mission to raise an Irish brigade and his attempts to promote the cause of Ireland in an escalating world crisis. With an expert editorial hand, Angus Mitchell provides clear context to Casement’s diaries, revealing his gruelling visit to the Western Front, the shocking interplay between the Easter Rising and the international theatre of the First World War, and the grand, sacrificial conclusion of his life.

A fascinating examination of the extraordinary life of Roger Casement, executed as part of the 1916 rising, fighting the empire that had previously knighted him. Roger Casement was a British consul for two decades. However, his investigation into atrocities in the Congo led Casement to anti-Imperialist views. Ultimately, this led him to side with the Irish Republican movement, leading up to the 1916 rising. Arrested by the British for gun trafficking, he was incarcerated in the Tower of London and then placed in the dock at the Royal Courts of Justice in an internationally-publicised state trial for high treason. He was hanged in Pentonville prison on the 3 August--two years to the day after Britain's declaration of war in 1914.
