1922
The authors deliver a joint eyewitness account of life in Dublin amid revolutionary upheaval, combining personal vignettes with reportage. They recount arrival and lodgings, contacts with intelligence agents, and the emergence of Sinn Féin and an organised republican campaign. The narrative records street ambushes, reprisals by Crown forces including the Black-and-Tans and Auxiliaries, hunger strikes, Bloody Sunday, raids on Dublin Castle and the Customs House, propaganda and arrests, and the strategies of concealment and hospitality that sustained civilians and militants through the march toward truce.
