The Battle of the Books took place in Ireland between 1824 and 1825, and it was a heated debate between the supporters and opponents of Catholic emancipation. The rocks of Bawn refer to the rocky outcrops in County Tipperary, where a large-scale clash took place between the forces of the Catholic Association and the British Army. The song commemorates the bravery and determination of the Catholic Association in their fight for religious freedom.
