Bereik en inhoud
Letter from Éamon de Valera addressed to Irish men and women in England asking them to support the movement for Irish independence. Text includes ‘Men and women of the Irish race – the land of your forefathers is still in bondage’; ‘Irishmen! duty claims – love prompts that you strive to set your Motherland free’; ‘Self-determination, understood in the only way it has a practical meaning, is the one basis on which the Governments of nations can rest now’. At foot of sheet: ‘Europe knows the justice of our claims. Lovers of liberty everywhere bid us Godspeed’.
