Table of ContentsReviewsThis fresh look at familiar history is a very worthwhile addition to the literature. Much has been written about Michael Collins's intelligence genius, but this is the first attempt by an intelligence professional to detail and to critically appraise Britain's attempts at response to it. A picture of official disorganization, interagency rivalry, and amateurism emerges, redeemed at times by acts of personal bravery and initiative. A valuable and succinct account, Michael Collins and the Anglo-Irish War narrates the emergence of many of the operational and structural ground rules that even yet underpin effective intelligence and counterintelligence work.
