We know about the leaders of the 1916 Rising. But what about the men and women who fought on the streets of Dublin? What did they go through during those brutal days after the clock struck on 24 April 1916? For them, the conflict was a mix of bloody fighting and energy-sapping waiting. These are their stories.
The 1916 Rising is one of the most documented and analysed episodes in Ireland's turbulent history. Often overlooked, however, is its immediate aftermath. The authors sifted through thousands of first-hand accounts and their stirring account will transport readers into life at this crucial juncture of our history.
Killing At its Very Extreme takes us to the heart of events between October 1917 and November 1920 describing the ramping up in the intelligence war and an upsurge in raids, gruesome assassinations and counter-measures.
