Recollections of the Irish War e-bog

DARRELL FIGGIS died on the 27th of October, 1925. The manuscript of "e;Recollections of the Irish War"e; was written, as far as can be traced, in 1921 to 1922.The book gives the author's personal impressions of those outstanding personalities on both sides of the Irish Channel who figured as protagonists in that long conflict for Irish Independence from the founding of the Irish Volunteers in 1913 to the truce in July, 1921, which led to the establishment of the Free State Government.Darrell Figgis himself played an important and adventurous part in these events. As a man of letters and a skilled observer of affairs he was peculiarly fitted to become the chronicler of this remarkable phase in Irish history.
