The ground-breaking study of the 400 Irish veterans of the Irish Rebellion of 1798 who were transported to Botany Bay 1800-6 proves that the 'political Irish' remained revolutionaries; only they changed tactics from warlike to negotiated change. At Castle Hill in 1804 they rebelled again; during the Rum Rebellion of 1808 they held back as they integrated steadily and played a central role in the developing colony. In this way they maintained the spirit of their original rebellion ~ and changed Australia forever.
