Spike Island by Michael Martin

Spike Island by Michael Martin

Explores the island through two different environments: from the founding of the monastery there by Saint Carthage to the use of the island as a place of detention, punishment and undignified death.

Dr MICHAEL MARTIN, who holds a PhD in history from University College Cork, served in the Irish Navy for 23 years. During that time he was instrumental in the emergence of PDFORRA, taking the constitutional case against the government for the right of association for all military personnel. He became Ireland's first ever General Secretary of a military representative body in 1990 and was the Irish delegate to the European Organisation of Military Associations.
