Abstract

This article surveys the life and political engagement of Ambrose Victor Martin, Irish nationalist who joined the Sinn Féin party, fought with the Irish Republican Army during the Irish War of Independence, and took part in the Irish Civil War in the ranks of the anti-treaty forces. This article shall certainly be relevant for Catalan and Spanish historiography because Martin established a direct relation with Estat Català and some Basque nationalists during the twenties. The pages that follow focus on those relations, as well as on the defence of the Basque Country that Martin undertook in Ireland during the Spanish Civil War.
