This episode explores the guerrilla phase of the Civil War. After the pro-treaty forces retook many large towns, republicans were forced to change tactics against overwhelming odds. Though a ceasefire was declared in 1923, atrocities and reprisals from both sides left a terrible legacy that continued to influence Ireland generations later.
