Towards Ireland Free is the story of one of the leaders of the War of Independence. In this account of the War of Independence in West Cork, he vividly recreates the tense and hope-filled atmosphere of those years. Deasy provides a rich gallery of portraits of those he fought alongside.
Brother against Brother is an account of the Irish Civil War that gives a rare and profound insight into the brutal and suicidal war that set father against son and brother against brother.
These are two rare books about the War of Independence and the Civil War. Both of these conflicts resonate today.
