The Army and the Curragh Incident 1914 Publications of the Army Records Society Volume 2
Published by the Bodley Head for the Army Records Society London 1986. First edition. Original Boards. Very Good/very good. 456 pages. With frontispiece. Dustjacket. Former owner's name on front free endpaper. Some annotations in pencil on front free endpaper. Slight wear to spine covers corners & dustjacket. The Army and the Curragh Incident The events at the Curragh Camp near Dublin on 20/21 March 1914 and the drama continued in London over the following nine days have a special significance in British military history. The outline of the story is well enough known: Brig.-General Hubert Gough and fellow-officers in the 3rd Cavalry Brigade threatened to resign rather than implement what seemed to them a policy of coercing Ulster into accepting Irish Home Rule; Gough secured a written guarantee from J. E. B. Seely Secretary of State for War that the army would not be so employed; Asquith’s Liberal cabinet however repudiated the guarantee which led Seely to resign along with the Chief of the Imperial General Staff Field Marshal Sir John French and the Adjutant General Lt-General Sir John Spencer Ewart. Although sometimes erroneously referred to as a ‘Mutiny’ the Curragh Incident does remain one of the very few occasions in modern times when the army asserted itself in face of the civil power in peacetime. Two previous books in particular have investigated the Curragh Incident which has also been discussed in the context of Irish Home Rule and of the leading participants but none of these accounts has benefited from all surviving primary sources—this is the first time access has been granted to certain key archives. The Incident has hitherto generally been seen in terms either of a Liberal plot to coerce Ulster or of a military plot to thwart the democratic process. By emphasising the wider impact of the Incident on the army this selection of original documents illuminates a number of aspects that have gone unremarked. The army’s increasing concern that it might be drawn into civil war in Ulster is illustrated and the accepted version of events in Ireland and London is shown in a new light. New evidence shows the impact of the Curragh Incident on the army outside Ireland and on the Royal Navy’s attitude. The common assumption that Asquith’s assuming the office of Secretary of State for War on 31 March 1914 closed the Incident is shown here to be false—the morale of the army and the officer corps continued to be affected by the Incident and its aftermath right up to the outbreak of the Great War. The Army and the Curragh Incident throws important new light both on British military history and on the ever present Irish ‘problem’. Dr Ian F. W. Beckett holds degrees from the University of Lancaster and King’s College London. He is author of a number of books in the field of military studies and is currently Senior Lecturer in War Studies at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Size: Octavo standard book size.
