Enter to win a copy of 'The Paper Wall: Newspapers and Propaganda in Ireland 1919-1921,' by Ian Kenneally. During the Irish War for Independence, the fighting also took place in the pages of the newspapers on both sides. Violence towards journalists was common. Inevitably, the journalists and newspapers became not just chroniclers of events but participants. This is a clear account of how the newspapers worked and reported amidst the storm of suppression, censorship, intimidation, propaganda and violence. Using contemporary newspapers, archival sources and newly opened files, this book brings a fresh perspective to the Irish War of Independence from the first Dail of 1919 to the Truce in 1921.
