Ever since that August day in 1922 when Michael Collins was fatally shot in an ambush at Béal na mBláth, controversy has raged over who fired the fateful shot – Dalton, O’Neill, Kelleher … or the British Secret Service?
Conspiracy theorists
even question the motive – and
whether it was deliberate or accidental?
Was there a conspiracy among disgruntled members of the Free State Government, or was de Valera behind it?
Now renowned
historian and author, Joe Connell, examines in detail the plethora of claims,
counter-claims, admissions, and denials about an event that has spawned more books, perhaps, than any other
single event in recent Irish history, to answer the question – who shot Michael
Collins?
