Description
Was Michael Collins killed by an accident of war or was he ruthlessly murdered? Both of these possibilities are calmly and carefully examined by the author, who has rejected the traditional theory that he was killed as a result of a ricochet rifle bullet and leans towards the possibility that he was shot by a Mauser pistol. In The Shooting of Michael Collins the author calmly examines the controversial circumstances surrounding the death of this brilliant leader, putting all the evidence before the discerning reader. For this edition the author rewrote large sections of the book, incorporating new information that came his way. It has aroused exceptional and absorbing interest in this baffling and bewildering mystery. John M. Feehan was born in County Tipperary. After a number of years in the regular army he resigned to devote his life to business and literature. He founded the successful Cork-based publishing house Mercier Press in 1944. He is the author of many other books including My Village - My World and The Secret Places of the Burren. He died in 1991.
