As Irish republicans sought to rid the country of British influence in the early 20th century, the influential Irish Times editor R. M. Smyllie navigated the painful experience of being made to feel an outsider in his own homeland. In this engaging consideration of an outspoken and conflicted man, Caleb Wood Richardson offers a way of seeing Smyllie as representative of the larger Anglo-Irish experience.
