"This book is based on original research into intimidation and violence directed at civilians by combatants during the revolutionary in Ireland, considering this from the perspectives of the British, the Free State and the IRA. It combines qualitative and quantitative approaches and focuses on Co Kerry which saw high levels of violence to demonstrate that violence and intimidation against civilians was more common than clashes between combatants. The study stresses the increasing brutality of violence by both the British and the IRA. The book is important reading for students and scholars of the Irish revolution, the social history of Ireland and inter-war European violence"--
