Klappentext
'You don't need to know anything about Irish history to enjoy this wonderful book.' - Irish Echo, 27 March 2013
'A STIRRING AND BEAUTIFUL BOOK' - The New York Times
'THE ONE CLASSIC WORK TO HAVE EMERGED FROM THE VIOLENCE THAT LED TO THE FOUNDATION OF THE STATE' - John McGahern
On Another Man's Wound, its title taken from an old Ulster proverb, 'it's easy to sleep on another mans wound', was first published in 1936 and has become the classic account of the years 1916-21. It captures the essence of Ireland at the time, the way people lived, their attitudes, their beliefs, the songs they sang, the legends they knew. Ernie O'Malley pictures the Irish landscape magnificently, and his cameo sketches of the great personalities of the Rising and the war that followed bring them into instant focus.
