Summary

• "Based on thousands of interviews over 35 years with the leaders and members of the Republican movement and the IRA, as well as with the Irish British, and Americans involved in the Troubles - police, paramilitaries, politicians, bankers, agents, diplomats - and deploying a detailed knowledge of all the orthodox printed sources, this work is unique in the literature."
• "Not unmindful of the unfolding of history or the relevance of events, the focus of this book remains on the workings of a particular organization engaged in armed struggle. Active, covert, illicit organizations present severe methodology problems for researchers, and the The IRA, 1968-2000 addresses a contemporary movement that, especially during the past decade - the endgame of the peace process - has remained secretive."--BOOK JACKET
