When President of the Irish Republic Michael Collins signed the Anglo-Irish Treaty in December 1921, he remarked "I may have signed my actual death warrant." In August, 1922 his prophecy came true—Collins was killed in a shocking political assassination. So ended the life of the greatest Irish nationalist, but his visions and legacy lived on. This authoritative biography presents the life of a man who became a legend in his own lifetime, whose idealistic vigor and determination were matched only by his political realism and supreme organizational abilities. It also portrays the political unrest in a divided Ireland, that can help to shape our understanding of Ireland's recent socio-political history.
