In Ireland, he was a leader of the failed Rising of 1848 and creator of their tricolor flag. Who was Thomas Francis Meagher? That depends in what part of the world the question is asked. If you are looking to read up on Irish, Australian and American history, you can do it all by reading this book. It’s clear that Egan did meticulous research, but unlike many historians, he is able to convey his findings in a way that compels his readers to keep turning pages. Timothy Egan’s The Immortal Irishman, a 2016 biography of Thomas Meagher, is a gripping narrative that reads more like a novel than traditional history or biography.
