Stories of those who taught and studied at MIC during Irish Revolution remembered in new publication
A new collaboration between Mary Immaculate College (MIC) historians and Limerick City & County Council explores how everyday life, teaching and learning continued – sometimes with difficulty – throughout the turbulent period of the Irish Revolution. Produced as part of Limerick City & County Council’s Decade of Centenaries programme, Studying Revolution: Accounts of Mary Immaculate College, 1918-1923 collates primary source material to tell the story of how staff & students navigated the revolutionary period, how ordinary life was interrupted and of the times that the war quite literally arrived at the College gates.
A new book from MIC academic Dr Derek Mulcahy tells the story of Limerick’s proud and long-standing culture of civilian marching bands.

Now, ‘By The Left, Quick March - Limerick’s Marching Band Tradition’ explores interviews, newspaper accounts, band records and photographs to tell – for the first time – the full story of these bands. The book is published by Limerick City and County Council in partnership with MIC.
