This was very interesting and informative book concerning the obstacles that the Irish people faced during the years of occupation by the British Military during the time period of around 1918 to 1921. It centered around the author's experiences during the war in which he was a major contributor. His straightforward approach to the telling of his brave comrades who gave their lives to be free from the oppressive rule of Britain. One of the facts I learned was that Britain has gone to war 77 times in the last 450 years in which they 90% of those victories were the slaughter of unarmed tribesman from Africa to China.
