Captive Columns - An Underground Prison Press 1865 - 2000

In ''Captive Columns'' Eoghan Mac Cormaic looks at the literature of the republican press which saw the production of over sixty prison titles—often handwritten. From the pinpricked sheets of toilet paper in Pentonville to Bobby Sands’ poetry smuggled out to be published, this is an astonishing story which has never been examined in detail before.
