An account of the author's work for Michael Collins during the period from 1916 to 1921. From within the centre of the British security machine, Neligan fed information to Collins enabling the IRA to stay ahead of its enemies in intelligence matters at virtually all times throughout the conflict. Neligan was one of a number of Irish-born members of the detective branch operating for Collins over this period. The two others best known, Eamonn Ned Broy and James McNamara, also come into this narrative.
Francis Devine traces the history of this key institution in modern Ireland from the foundation of the IT&GWU in 1909 to the modern day. The key events of the heroic age of trade unionism are given due notice, most particularly the famous lock-out of 1913. Larkin and James Connolly are the presiding figures of the early decades and from the 1920s a succession of influential IT&GWU leaders, including William O'Brien, John Conroy, Michael Mullen and John Carroll, guided the affairs of the larger union and secured its position in Irish life. The Larkinite FWUI, although smaller, maintained the potency of the radical tradition in the Irish labour movement, under the leadership of James Larkin Junior, Paddy Cardiff and William Attley. The last twenty-five years has seen a decline in overall union density, although the movement remains a critical element of social partnership. Francis Devine's history is an authoritative overview of Ireland's largest union over the past one hundred years, placing its changing fortunes in their appropriate historical context.
For the first time in published form 'The Men Will Talk to Me: Galway Interviews' chronicles the experiences of the Galway-based survivors of the War of Independence and the Civil War, recorded in the hand-written notebooks of Ernie O'Malley. Many of the individuals would not talk about their experiences, even to their own families, but were willing to talk to Commandant General O'Malley, the senior surviving Republican military commander, who took on the task of preserving the memories of these participants. The resulting O'Malley notebooks provide an unrivaled insight into this important period of Irish history, including the attack on Clifden and life 'on the run' for the Galway IRA volunteers.
This new, revised and expanded edition brings back into print an excellent resource for those interested in the history of the RIC and the revolutionary period generally. In the period 1816 to 1922 some 85,000 men served in the RIC and its predecessor forces. Information on all these policemen is available, constituting a quarry for their descendants in Ireland, the US and elsewhere. The book consists of chapters on the history of policing in Ireland (to illustrate the type of men in the Force, their background and their lifestyle etc.), followed by a section on 'Tracing your ancestors in the RIC'. New appendices to this edition identify members of the RIC who were rewarded for their service during the Young Ireland Rising, 1848; the Fenian Rising, 1867; the Easter Rising, 1916; and the War of Independence, 1919-21. Also members of the RIC who volunteered for service in the Mounted Staff Corps and the Commissariat during the Crimean War; members who served as drivers and orderlies on secondment to the Irish Hospital in the South African War in 1900; and members who served in the British Army in the First World War are identified. RIC recipients of the King George V, Coronation (Police) Medal, 1911; the Constabulary Medal; and the Kings Police Medal are listed, as are ex-RIC men who transferred to the Royal Ulster Constabulary in 1922 and received additional bravery medals.
