The first image is Alexis Soyer's complete letter to the editor which includes two of his soup recipes. He believed that id followed they would be beneficial to the poor as well as others. In the letter he explains that these soups can be made at low cost and that it is important (even for the poor) to occasionally change soup recipes for digestive health reasons. At the end of the Soup No.1 recipe, as seen in the second image, Soyer guarantees this soup to be very good and nutritious. He bases this guarantee off the palates of numerable noblemen, members of Parliament, and several ladies who tasted it. The Soup No. 2 recipe is found in the third image and Soyer added this to show that the soup could be made at an even cheaper price and in less time if made in a larger scale. He ends the letter explaining how he intends to use these recipes and others not listed in his soup kitchens. Soyer had already established one soup kitchen for the poor at a small scale and when he had more investors he intended to open more. His soup kitchen became a model for all others during the famine. The last image was posted in The Illustrated London News on April 17, 1847 and is a depiction of what his kitchen looked like.

Title A name given to the resource The Anglo-Irish Treaty Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource December 6, 1921 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Irish and English Delegates Arthur Griffith Lloyd George Description An account of the resource The Anglo-Irish Treaty, signed on December 6, 1921, ended the Irish War of Independence. The delegations that created the treaty were led by Irishman Arthur Griffith, Griffith's second Michael Collins, and Englishman Lloyd George. Much to the relief of the Irish, the treaty successfully ended the war and created the Irish Free State. However, there was heavy opposition to the treaty as well. Irishman and leader of the Irish Republic, de Valera, did not approve of the Free State or its undermining of his and Pearse's Republic. In addition, the treaty still required an Irish oath of allegiance to the crown. De Valera had initially been invited to London to take part in the negotiations, but Griffith had been sent in his stead per the decision of the Dáil Cabinet. De Valera's un-involvement heavily influenced his rejection of the treaty. The tensions between those who accepted the treaty and those in opposition eventually helped lead to the Irish Civil War in 1922.

It is important to note that since Northern Ireland was part of Great Britain, they were technically at war despite the declaration of Irish Neutrality. The once ignored Belfast drew attention to itself as it grew to a large ship building port. Unfortunately, the German’s conducted raids over Belfast more than once, three times to be exact. One of the German bombing blitzes on Belfast left thousands dead or homeless. It is interesting that despite the German bombing on Belfast De Valera still offered his condolences when the Nazi leader Hitler passed away. One would think that after having the Germans encroach upon their homeland after they had declared a state of neutrality they would take up arms.

Bewsher Description An account of the resource In 1499, Perkin Warbeck confessed to Henry VII of England about his true identity. He was the son of John Osbeck and Katherine de Faro. When he arrived in Ireland, he was assumed to be a wealthy man because of his attire he was assumed to be the Duke of Clarence’s son. He denied this allegation and then was determined to be Richard the Duke of York, son to King Edward IV of England by the Duke of Desmond and Kildare. He was forced to learn English and was sent to France to meet the King. He traveled from France to Flanders then to Ireland into Scotland and from there into England. This confession was evidence that he was not the son of King Edward IV of England, and therefore his claim to the throne of England was invalid.

The Corridor was located over south Donegal, north Leitrim, and north Sligo, and met the Atlantic. The Donegal Corridor is especially interesting for one reason in particular. Although De Valera had declared that Ireland would maintain a neutral position in the war, they did not completely avoid participation. As the Battle of the Atlantic broke out, it became obvious to Ally forces that planes would be needed for protection to ship convoys against the German U-boats. Ireland allowed the Allies to gain access to the Atlantic through their safe, neutral territory in County Donegal. The path that the Allies were allowed to take came to be known as the Donegal Corridor. Of course, this kind of Irish involvement led to deeper involvement. Eventually, the Irish were so aware of the Ally planes that they could report when one crashed before the British knew about. They often had a hand in sending the Ally troops safely back on their way as well. Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived McGowan, Joe. 2003.
