Pawns in the game

Between 1917 and 1981, 22 Irishmen died on hunger strike. It was adopted as a protest of last resort by republican prisoners in the early 20th century. This book is not just a portrait of those who died but also explores the political circumstances of their strikes the pressure they felt and the pain and suffering of family and friends.
