Armed Struggle: The History of the IRA by Richard English is pretty thorough and well balanced. He is neither overly dismissive nor celebratory of the militancy of the IRA, but he examines its successes and failures pretty fairly.

> You're being a tad exaggerational with the build up to the PIRA there. However, calling them an amateur army doesn't excuse their actions. The fact remains that in the War of Independence innocents were killed as accidental casualties and the PIRA killed innocents for shock and fear.
Prove it. Give me a list of all known deaths and we'll examine how they died.
The first people killed during the "war of independence" were not accidental casualties. Dan Breen gunned them down in broad daylight. Their crime? They refused to hand over explosives to him.
