books on the WP, this should be interesting.

fascinating stuff.Originally Posted by Lao-Tse
i wonder if it will reveal any new historical nuggets - lets face it , getting a full OIRA/WP history is difficult to say the least, as many of the protagonists are still alive.
Nice taster here:

with some info about the authors:
"Brian Hanley is a lecturer in Irish history at the Queen's University, Belfast, and the author of A Guide to Irish Military Heritage and The IRA 1926–1936. Scott Millar is a journalist with the Irish Examiner."
Nah - in these NAMA times, it might be to Gillys advantage to be tarred with a revolutionary brush.
Politics can be a funny thing - all to do with timing.
i wonder if its going to cover the Flemish Waffen SS guy ,Staf van Vethoven, and his involvement with SFWP
