The IRA in Britain
Book •
Gerard Noonan's work examines the IRA's activities in Britain from 1919 through to the Irish Civil War, exploring organisational challenges, operations, and the difficulties of conducting a campaign on hostile territory.
The book analyses sabotage, attacks, and the relationship between IRA units in Britain and GHQ in Ireland.
It places IRA operations in Britain within the broader political and military context of the War of Independence.
Noonan draws on archival sources and contemporary accounts to reconstruct actions in cities such as London, Liverpool and Manchester.
The study is regarded as a key reference for understanding the transnational dimension of the IRA's campaign.
