The author has collected nearly a hundred witness statements and depositions from both Irish citizens and Crown forces personnel, many of whom were ex-servicemen, British, and American. It provides irrefutable evidence that members of the British Crown Forces were responsible for the destruction. The evidence presented in this book is particularly significant as it challenges the British Governmentâs claims of innocence and exposes the brutality and lawlessness of the Crown forces during the Irish War of Independence. Furthermore, the book provides an in-depth look at the broader historical context of the conflict, exploring the political and social tensions that led to the uprising and the subsequent reprisals. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
