==Biography==
Cottrell is the author of the best-selling military history 'The Anglo-Irish War: The Troubles 1913–23' which challenges traditional nationalist interpretations of the Easter Rising; the role of the Royal Irish Constabulary and the popularity of the IRA campaign whilst supporting the view that the conflict was as much an Irish civil war as a struggle for independence from the UK.〔http://www.ospreypublishing.com/text_search.aspx?TextSearch=irish%20civil%20war&Group=1〕
