Beschreibung:
In his exploration of the use of intelligence in Ireland by the British government from the onset of the Ulster Crisis in 1912 to the end of the Irish War of Independence in 1921, Grob-Fitzgibbon analyzes the role that intelligence played during those critical nine years.
BOLD, NEW ARGUMENT: Grob-Fitzgibbon provides a completely new and controversial interpretation of British governance in Ireland in the early 20th century
