In his book The Disappeared, historian Pádraig Óg Ó Ruairc looks at the history of forced disappearances in Ireland and identifies all known victims over the last century.

Thanks to the Business Post for the review - I think I hit my mark based on this comment…

‘Crotty’s narrative often feels like a guided tour, cramming in as much colourful information as possible while keeping visitors moving along at a brisk pace’

Some fascinating facts from Spike Island include the sheer scale of the 1804 fortress & 1847 prison

Both were products of an Empire unbound by financial restraint

Seeking to consolidate its grip on Ireland & ascendency

It took until 1938 to end a 160 year military occupation

Thanks to the brilliant staff in Hodges Figgis & Dubray Grafton Street! 📘🫶🏻
