"My Lords of Strogue, Vol. 1 (of 3)" by Lewis Wingfield is a historical novel that plunges into Ireland's vibrant yet troubled past during a time of powerful change. The story centers on the experiences of Lord Glandore in a society that is politically polarized, and follows his relationships within his own family to highlight personal conflicts that echo the nation's desire for independence. Set against the backdrop of the Irish Volunteers' rise, the book opens with Dubliners celebrating the victory of 1783; a moment of triumph filled with military pride but also shadowed by ingrained tensions. Other people like Lady Glandore and John Philpot Curran show complex issues like the rights of Catholics in Ireland. The atmosphere is full of political arguments that hint at difficulties to come during this important time in history.
