The Trial of Sir Roger Casement, written by George H. Knott and published in 1917, is a historical account of the trial of the Irish nationalist and British diplomat, Sir Roger Casement. The book details the events leading up to Casement's arrest, his trial, and his subsequent execution for treason in 1916. Casement was a prominent figure in the Irish nationalist movement and had played a key role in exposing the atrocities committed by the Belgian colonial authorities in the Congo and the rubber companies operating there. He later became involved in the Irish Easter Rising of 1916, which aimed to establish an independent Irish republic. The book provides a detailed account of the trial, including the prosecution's case against Casement, his defense, and the verdict. It also explores the political and social context of the trial, including the tensions between Ireland and Britain, and the wider implications of the case for the British Empire. Overall, The Trial of Sir Roger Casement is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a significant moment in Irish and British history, and provides insight into the complex political and social dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
