Fell down a rabbit hole to learn that Michael Collins & the IRA in the War of Independence are considered innovators of modern urban guerrilla war. Then I read their tactical deliberation was maybe reconstructed after the fact in memoir. But theory's often like that, no? #GuerrillaWar #IRA #strategy #theory #praxis

Un sacacuartos de SNK en toda regla, la alta dificultad es para dejarse los dineros en la máquina; pero es entretenido, un poco loco y tomándose unas licencias con los hechos históricos en los que se basa.

The Black freedom fighters of the Lesser Antilles became known as “brigands” during the french revolution. Their fascinating story has never been written, perhaps because they have been dismissed as runaway slaves in a state of insurrection. The author believed that history has been unfair to the “brigands”. He felt indebted to them for sparing the life of his great-great-great-grandmother who was left in their care when the rest of the Devaux family fled to Martinique for safety. His gratitude motivated him to attempt to exonerate the “brigands” from the stigma of their history and present them in a different light, as freedom fighters caught up in a desperate situation.
