Erskine Childers was the author of the novel The Riddle of the Sands. He was a product of Haileybury and Cambridge, became a Clerk to the House of Commons, fought in the Boer War, joined the navy as a lieutenant in the Volunteer Reserve in 1914 and was awarded the DSC in the Royal Naval Air Service. How did it come about that this typical product of the English upper class was condemned to death by the newly formed Irish Governement, not as an agent of the English but as a republican rebel, a member of the outlawed IRA?
