It combines qualitative and quantitative approaches and focuses on Co Kerry which saw high levels of violence to demonstrate that violence and intimidation against civilians was more common than clashes between combatants. The study stresses the increasing brutality of violence by both the British and the IRA. The book is important reading for students and scholars of the Irish revolution, the social history of Ireland and inter-war European violence"-- UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9780429319341 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
