As Christy Moore's sings on his famous Viva La Quince Brigada song...

Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor
Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came
From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother
Side by side they fought and died in Spain

This is the story of Bob Hilliard written by Lin Rose Clark.

Each single ticket purchased admits you to the book launch and offers you a discount of £2.50 of one book per single ticket.
