The first comprehensive account to record and analyze all deaths arising from the Irish revolution between 1916 and 1921 This account covers the turbulent period from the 1916 Rising to the Anglo-Irish Treaty of December 1921—a period which saw the achievement of independence for most of nationalist Ireland and the establishment of Northern Ireland as a self-governing province of the United Kingdom. Separatists fought for independence against government forces and, in North East Ulster, armed loyalists. Civilians suffered violence from all combatants, sometimes as collateral damage, often as targets. Eunan O’Halpin and Daithí Ó Corráin catalogue and analyze the deaths of all men, women, and children who died during the revolutionary years—505 in 1916; 2,344 between 1917 and 1921. This study provides a unique and comprehensive picture of everyone who died: in what manner, by whose hands, and why. Through their stories we obtain original insight into the Irish revolution itself.

This 70,000-word work is a translation of the mid-2016 History of the 33rd North Vietnamese Army Regiment. During the Vietnam War, over 3,000 cadre and soldiers of the 33rd Regiment were recorded as killed or missing ? with the Regiment's average strength being only about 1,300. As comments on the text ? and to add context, a considerable number of ?Translator's Notes? have been added as footnotes to the translation, creating an ?exegesis'. The large number of ?Translator's Notes? include detailed references to enable interested readers to readily access primary source material ? much of it now available via the Internet. Many of the comments are based on an examination of captured NVA and VC documents and the debriefs of prisoners and ralliers (ie defectors). Several Vietnamese-language histories ? other than 33rd Regiment monographs, have somewhat different accounts of events - including engagements with the Australian forces, and several of these have also been noted.
