Irish Civil War

I'm asking about
1. Irish Civil War History Books.
2. Irish Civil War Novels/Fiction.

Any suggestions, authors?

Are we talking about the Troubles in general or the Civil War with pro and anti treaty forces?

The Pro and Anti-Treaty forces.

There is quite a lot to be found on the BBC History Channel site here which also recommends further reading

There was a series on the History Channel called War and Conflict which covered the Irish Civil War, and there might be a DVD of it but all I could find on the net was this DVD on The Secret History of the IRA.
