The Kimmage garrison, 1916

Making billy-can bombs at Larkfield

Ann Matthews

‘Fascinating, providing much incidental – and some horrific – detail about events during that eventful/dreadful week [Easter Week, 1916] … this is a book which will richly reward thos with only an overall impression of the Easter Rising … Ann Matthews has done a remarkable job in bringing to vivid life a little story concerning Kimmage which fed into the remarkable events of Easter Week', Dublin Historical Record (Autumn 2010).
