Peter Hart (1963 - 2010) was the Canada Research Chair of Irish Studies at Memorial University of Newfoundland and the author of The I.R.A. and Its Enemies (winner of the Christopher Ewart-Biggs Memorial Prize) and two other books on modern Irish history.
His work will remain vital to debates on early 20th-century Ireland, and the valuable discussions which he pioneered will represent, along with his powerful books, an enduring legacy.
