Esta obra de teatro de Frank McGuinness, publicada en 1986 por Faber & Faber, sigue la experiencia de ocho hombres que se ofrecen como voluntarios para servir en la 36ª División (Ulster) al comienzo de la Primera Guerra Mundial. La obra alcanza su clímax al inicio de la terrible batalla del Somme el 1 de julio de 1916, el aniversario de la batalla del Boyne en 1690. El Somme, donde la División Ulster sufrió grandes bajas, tiene un lugar sagrado en la mente protestante lealista. Marca la unión sellada con sangre y representa la prueba definitiva de la lealtad de Ulster.
