Ireland through a participant’s changing perspective

Ernie O’Malley’s account connects the Easter Rising of 1916 and the Irish War of Independence with details of everyday life, beliefs, and attitudes in Ireland. The description traces a personal shift: O’Malley begins largely indifferent to efforts for independence, then joins the Irish Republican Army as the struggle progresses. Cameo sketches of figures associated with the Rising and the War place that experience alongside the people and personalities of the period. The book therefore brings together a participant’s changing political commitment and a broader portrait of Ireland during a pivotal era.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Irish history, especially the Easter Rising and the War of Independence.
  • Readers seeking a participant’s account alongside portraits of people and everyday life in Ireland during the period.

Book overview

More than any other book of the period, On Another Man's Wound captures the feel of Ireland--the way people lived, their attitudes and beliefs--and paints brilliant cameo sketches of the great personalities of the Rising and the War. Like many of the Irish, O'Malley was largely indifferent to the attempts to establish an independent Ireland--until the Easter Rising of 1916. As the fight progressed his feelings changed and he joined the Irish Republican Army.
