About this Event

Join us to celebrate launch of A Motley Crew. True Tales From Ireland's Criminal Past, with author Frank Hoplins and guest speaker Lorcan Collins. There will be lively chat, an audience Q&A, and signings on the night.

True stories of the strange, the grim and the unforgettable lives that passed through Ireland’s courts and jails in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Ireland’s criminal history is filled with more than notorious villains and heroic rebels. It is crowded with people who stumbled, schemed or sang their way into the record books: ballad‑makers arrested for sedition, children forced into dangerous trades, women punished for survival, drunk jailers, unlucky fugitives, illicit marriages, and hangmen whose reputations linger longer than those they executed.
