Ireland's Violent Frontier

The Border and Anglo-Irish Relations During the Troubles

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The IRA's ability to exploit the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland was central to the organisation's capacity to wage its 'Long War' over a quarter of a century. This book is the first to look at the role of the border in sustaining the Provisionals and its central role in Anglo-Irish relations throughout the Troubles.

Rezensionen

"Ireland's Violent Frontier - The Border and Anglo-Irish Relations During The Troubles ... has been thoroughly well-considered and assimilated by way of acute research/thorough analyses. ... Thorough, comprehensive and very readable, Ireland's Violent Frontier is a most worthy addition to the current spate of literature being written on what remains a most complex and inflammatory subject."
