Killing Rage
I'm sure Eamon Collins translated his experiences to Mick McGovern who then transcribes into his version of "Killing Rage"...one that will sell books. That is first thing that jumps out in the book is Collins denouncing the armed struggle and stating that the IRA is wrong. That's like the career criminal who gets locked up for life suddenly finding religion. Whatever opportunity offers the most to be gained, that is the direction they will follow. Also striking within the book, and i've read several like it where the insider bares all, is that Collins grossly exagerates his experiences and importance within the IRA. He weaves a fantastic tale of himself as a 17 or 18 year old meeting with the most senior levels of the Irish Republican Army and dictating his terms before joining with them. ...

He weaves a fantastic tale of himself as a 17 or 18 year old meeting with the most senior levels of the Irish Republican Army and dictating his terms before joining with them. Collins goes on to state that he came up with the nickname "iceman" for his senior contact within the IRA. Obviously Collins was watching too many action films. He goes on to state that he, and he alone, was responsible for recruiting, building units, and carryout some of the most notorious acts of the 30+ years of the Northern Ireland Troubles. The bottom line with this book is that it insults an educated readers intelligence. It is poorly written and is not worth "the price of admittance"

very good book
When it comes to history, this is the best kind of book. An eyewitness account from someone deep in the chaos. This is why first person accounts from fanatics are the best kind of books. Being Irish this is a topic that is near and dear to my heart. I don't believe the I.R.A. were terrorists. They were fighting a war of survival against an Empire that were subjecting their people to a system of apartheid. This book is very well written. Other books do a better job of detailing the state of apartheid that existed for Irish Catholics in Northern Ireland and led to the I.R.A.'s needing to wage war. Collins isn't after that though. He is attempting to show the dehumanization of the war and his part in it. War is of course dehumanizing, but sometimes necessary. Especially in this ... When it comes to history, this is the best kind of book. An eyewitness account from someone deep in the chaos. This is why first person accounts from fanatics are the best kind of books. Being Irish this is a topic that is near and dear to my heart. I don't believe the I.R.A. were terrorists. They were fighting a war of survival against an Empire that were subjecting their people to a system of apartheid. This book is very well written. Other books do a better job of detailing the state of apartheid that existed for Irish Catholics in Northern Ireland and led to the I.R.A.'s needing to wage war. Collins isn't after that though. He is attempting to show the dehumanization of the war and his part in it. War is of course dehumanizing, but sometimes necessary. Especially in this case when it's a war of freedom from oppression and 800 years of brutalization at the hands of the British Empire. The draw back with this book is it doesn't end Eamon Collins's story. I had to go on the Internet and find out what ultimately happened to him. They need to put in a final chapter and end the story. All in all a very good book. Very little politics too and that's always good. Books on Northern Ireland have a tendency to be destroyed by too much politics, but not this one. I recently read Bill Ayre's book, "Fugitive Days," about his time with the Weather Underground. It's another book by a fanatic and worth reading. Eamon Collins is another victim in the long list of victims at the hands of the British Empire. Boxed into a corner, twisting and turning this way and that. Like a caged Lion he reacted as a cage Lion would react. He fought back. Another life terrorized by oppression, boxed into a corner and called evil and a terrorist when he fought for his and his people's freedom.
