Michael Collins
By Tim Pat Coogan.
Description
When Michael Collins signed the Anglo Irish Treaty in December 1921, he remarked to Lord Birkenhead, " I may have signed my actual death warrant." And in August 1922, that prophecy came true - Collins was shot and killed by a fellow Irishman. So ended the life of the greatest of all Irish nationalists, but his vision and legacy lived on. This authoritative and comprehensive biography presents the life of a man who became a legend in his own lifetime, whose idealistic vigor and determination were matched only by his political realism and supreme organizational abilities. - from Amzon
