Reviews for Michael Collins And The Troubles: The Struggle For Irish Freedom 1912-1922
"'An extraordinary pageant... Imaginatively and brilliantly written.' - Irish Times 'Michael Collins and the Troubles should be required reading for politicians in Dublin, Belfast, and London... An excellent encapsulation of a crowded time in Irish History... Reading it will throw fresh light on the whys and wherefores, the ifs and buts of our comparatively recent past.' - Mary O'Rourke, deputy leader of Fianna Fail, Irish Sunday Independent"
