The Croppy Boy

1798-Ireland The Rebellion led by the United Irishmen has been subdued and the last vestiges of the once mighty Wexford army are marching north into Meath in a final effort to rekindle the rebellion in Ulster. Based on true historical events, and set in the counties of Louth and Meath in the summer of 1798 the story concerns a young Louth man who finds himself caught up in a cauldron of military action against government forces who brutally suppress any form of sedition. A once peaceful existence soon turns into a fight for survival and a battle of wits against the might of an empire. See more
