Description
Liam Ó Briain (1888-1974)was a native of Dublin’s East Wall area and a neighbour of Sean O’Casey. In Irish articles in Comhar and Feasta – now translated – he wrote of his own experiences during the War of Independence at the hands of the Tans and Auxiliaries at this time of terror in Galway in 1920-21 when destructive military raids and cold-blooded murders were part of daily life.
