Brother Against Brother - Paperback
by Liam Deasy (Author)
Brother Against Brother is Liam Deasy's moving and sensitive account of the Civil War, one of Ireland's greatest tragedies. He recounts in detail the Republican disillusionment with the Truce and later with the Treaty, how the Republicans were hopelessly outnumbered, hunted and killed, especially in Munster, before they were finally broken and defeated. For the first time, Deasy recalls the circumstances surrounding his much-criticised order appealing to his comrades to call off the Civil War - an order that saved the lives of hundreds of prisoners.
In a special chapter, he recounts his involvement in the ambush at B?al na mBl?th, in which his close friend Michael Collins met his death on 22 August 1922.
This book gives a rare and profound insight into the brutal, suicidal war that set father against son and brother against brother.
