The book is based on a battle between two powerful men on Árainn, the largest of the three Aran islands. One was the schoolmaster David O'Callaghan and the other was the parish priest Fr.Farragher. This all ended with the eviction of the schoolmaster in 1914.

Liam O'Flaherty's novel "Skerrett" is based on the historical events surrounding the Irish War of Independence in the early 20th century. The novel explores themes of rebellion, loyalty, and betrayal through the character of Skerrett, a member of the Irish Republican Army. While the novel is a work of fiction, it draws heavily from the real-life experiences and struggles of individuals involved in the Irish fight for independence.
