I was very impressed by Jack O'Briens book British Brutality in Ireland. The facts have been well researched and well presented. The book draws on eye witness accounts, historical documents, ancient archives, personal testimonies and thorough historical research by both catholic and protestant historians. He describes the British involvement in Ireland from 1169 to the present day. It gives eye witness accounts of the terrible cruelties and injustices inflicted on the Irish people over many centuries. He describes how all of this was covered up and hidden by British propaganda. The book also shows up the serious flaws in the British criminal justice system which are a disgrace to Britain which prides itself as a modern so called "democratic nation". I learnt quite a lot about Ireland and my Irish ancestors. If you have any Irish ancestry you will learn the terrible truth about what happened to your Irish ancestors in this book. The book is a historical masterpiece. If you want to understand present circumstances in Ireland and Irish history, Jack O'Brien's historical masterpiece has to be read.
