Summary: a woman-activist's view of Irish history
Comment: This very well-written, cogent description of pivotal events in 20th c. Ireland is from a woman-acitivist's point of view but focuses almost entirely on events around her and little on her internal experience of them. At times she says, "I was wild with grief," anger etc., but little else about her own emotional experience to the horrific losses she suffered. While she certainly has her own opinions about individuals and events, she does not belabor the reader with them. Her defense of Michael Collins is unique for an activist of her politics. Her ambivalence toward DeValera is obvious but she is not bitter or mean spirited in any of her opinions of others. This is a very interesting, readable memoir.
