Title: Terrible angel
Description: "On August 22, 1922, Michael Collins was assassinated at Beal na mBlath in County Cork. Known as "The Big Fellor," the charismatic Collins was thirty-one years old and the leader of the Irish Free State. In the previous six years he had been a busy man; he fought in the 1916 Easter Rebellion, invented the IRA, financed the new Irish state, assassinated the entire British Secret Service in Dublin, and negotiated the treaty that drove the British out of twenty-six counties of Ireland for the first time in 700 years. Terrible Angel finds Collins 70 years after his bloody death desperately seeking to make amends for his violent life by completing one last wordly mission."--Jacket.
