Irish Civil War veteran Ernie O' Malley first published his account of Ireland's war-torn years in 1935. Entitled "On Another Man's Wound," O' Malley offers a unique chronicle of the Irish War for Independence and the subsequent Civil War. (The Irish edition was called "Army Without Banners: Adventures of an Irish Volunteer.") Now, O' Malley's son Cormac has helped bring out a new edition of this book, which still captures this tormented time in Ireland better than most others. (Young Ernie reported directly to Michael Collins.) In addition, Cormac's new preface (which unfortunately is not included in the American edition) offers a fascinating story about changes the author had wanted made, and how Cormac came to put out this new edition.
