Kieran examines the wepaons brought to the attack by both sides, and discusses their value in the contect of the battle, and gives examples of their uses.
He looks in particular at the tactics employed, and considers how these were affected by the weapons used by both sides.

This book is launched to mark the 99th anniversary attack, in the absence of teh usual conference which Kilmainham Tales co-sponsors.

"Weapons of the Custom House Attack 1921" complements and expands on Kieran's two previous books, and the trio will be essential parts of the library of any student of the period.
