A reprint of a book on the Civil War in Kerry is to be launched by Sinn Féin in Tralee this evening.
Tragedies of Kerry by Dorothy Macardle was first published in 1924, a year after the events at Ballyseedy, Countess Bridge, and Bahaghs.
The reprint contains a foreword by former Kerry Sinn Féin TD, Martin Ferris and will be launched by former Lord Mayor of Dublin, Councillor Micheál Mac Donncha.
