Table of ContentsReviews'Brian Heffernan is to be highly commended for this fine study which will be a standard work on this subject for many years to come.' J. Anthony Gaughan, The Irish Catholic, Book Review, 20 June 2014 'For those interested in the war of independence (1919-21), this is a pageturner. The author describes in considerable detail the role of priests and bishops during those revolutionary years. In so doing, he provides a valuable service. Apart from an article published more than forty years ago by Tomas O Fiaich, no-one has since written specifically on this subject.' 'Meticulously using both archival and newspaper resources, this worthwhile study examines and classifies the response of Catholic clergy to the post - 1918 troubles in Ireland.' JAMES FLINT, ST PROCOPIUS ABBEY, LISLE, ILLINOIS, JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY, 1 April 2015 '...hugely impressive, illuminating and excellently researched book ... Heffernan has vividly filled a large gap in historical knowledge about how priests navigated exceptionally difficult circumstances and volatile times, and the book deserves wide readership. Drawing on diocesan archives, newspapers, witness statements and contemporary correspondence, Heffernan skilfully weaves these sources together into a judicious, well-written overview.' - Dairmaid Ferriter, Irish Times review.
