Scope and content
A copy of a pamphlet titled ‘The truth about the army crisis (official) / with a foreward by Major-General Liam Tobin’ ([Dublin]: Issued by the Irish Republican Army Organization, 78A Summerhill, Dublin, [1924]). The pamphlet deals with the ‘mutiny’ of high-ranking officers in the Free State army in 1924. The crisis was provoked by a proposed reduction in army numbers in the immediate post-Civil War period.
