Product Description
Jim Maher, the author, comes from a Kilkenny family with a strong Republican tradition, and his commitment to tell the story of the lives and times of the young freedom fighters of the borderland was strengthened when he went to teach in Tullaroan National School and met many of those who participated in the encounter with British forces at nearby Knocknagress. He has travelled the byways of Kilkenny and Tipperary tracking down the quiet men and women who knew the days of the Flying Columns, Brigades, Battalions and Companies of the IRA and the members of Cumann na mBan. For Jim Maher it was a labour of love and this evocative book is a fitting tribute to the author and to the men and women who have passed into histORY
