Like all guerrilla wars, the Irish War of Independence was characterised by great courage and ruthless brutality. It created many heroes and spawned two of the most hated forces that a British government had ever inflicted on Ireland: the Black and Tans and the Auxiliaries.
This book traces the cause, development and consequences of the war, which led to the bloody birth of modern Ireland.
