Jack Holland was an Irish journalist, novelist, and non-fiction writer.
He spent much of his career covering the Troubles in Northern Ireland before turning to broader historical and cultural topics.
Holland's work often explored themes of violence, prejudice, and social injustice.
"A Brief History of Misogyny" was his final book, published posthumously in 2006.
His daughter notes in the introduction that Holland encountered surprise at a man writing about misogyny, to which he responded that men invented it.
Holland's writing style is described as passionate, clear, and engaging, making complex historical topics accessible to general readers.
