Items related to On Another's Man Wound
More than any other book of the period, On Another Man's Wound captures the feel of Irelandā€”the way people lived, their attitudes and beliefsā€”and paints brilliant cameo sketches of the great personalities of the Rising and the War. Like many of the Irish, O'Malley was largely indifferent to the attempts to establish an independent Irelandā€”until the Easter Rising of 1916. As the fight progressed his feelings changed and he joined the Irish Republican Army.
