SummaryThis book as a whole does not tell a story; that is, the trace of events and the overall course of Irish independence don’t go from beginning to end and tell. Rather, each chapter depicts a significant time period in the history of Ireland that Collins, the author, witnessed. Everything is more or less in chronological order but it would be more accurate to say that each chapter told its own story. However, to state the obvious: the book is about Ireland’s difficult but triumphant struggle for freedom—freedom of Britain and the long-sought after but denied freedom that was a human right. As Collins put it, “…it was freedom we sought for, not the name of the form of government we should adopt when we got our freedom.”
