The Irish Revolution and Its Aftermath 1916-1923 : Years of Revolt

The Irish Revolution at the beginning of the twentieth century spawned the creation of the modern Irish state.

This is the first full-length analysis to offer a comprehensive framework of that revolution in its totality, taking into account the broad range of social, economic and political developments as well as the IRA's campaign of guerrilla warfare and the British response to it.

Drawing on such previously unpublished sources as the Irish Department of Defence's Military History Bureau, the author paints a broad picture of the people and the key events in the Irish struggle for independence.
