From the dust jacket: "O'Malley became a rebel during the Easter Uprising of 1916. As a young medical student in Dublin he borrowed a friend's rifle and sniped at the enemy. Thoughout the next five years of hardship and danger he took a major part in the fight against the British forces, so that by the truce of July 1921 he had risen from volunteer to officer commanding the Second Southern, second largest divsion of the IRA. More than any other book of the period, On Another Man's Wound captures the essence, the feel of Ireland at that time, the way people lived, the songs they sang, the legends they knew, their attitudes, their beliefs. He pictures the Irish landscape magnificently. His cameo sketches of the great personalities of the Rising and the war bring them into instant focus.". 1979 edition. Hardcover.
