During the Irish Civil War, events of late 1922 and early 1923
together with waves of 'dishonourable' killings created poisoned
relations between Republicans and 'Free Staters' which would last
for several generations. The most enduring of these controversies,
a policy of summary executions carried out by the Provisional
Government from November 1922, continues to surround the argument.
This book offers a fresh perspective on the causes, development and
consequences of the Irish Civil War. Triggered by the signing of
the Anglo-Treaty, there were those that would accept nothing less
than complete Irish independence. Very few IRA commanders active in
the field supported the Treaty and, as happens often in the
dissection of civil wars, controversy over the conduct of both
sides figures heavily within the text, where, at a local and
national level, it left bitter legacies. This book offers an
overview of the war in all regions of Ireland.
