When things turned political, there seemed to be no place for his kind of activism. This title presents the inside story by a senior IRA man.</p>

It details the motivation behind the IRA 'armed struggle', the Civil Rights movement, the murder campaigns of various loyalist terror groups, the major incidents of violence and the response of the British security forces and the justice system. It describes what it was like to live with bombs, army searches in the dead of night, death threats to politicians, activists and others. A detailed account of the political and personal toll of the Northern Ireland conflict. Revised and updated in 2007.</p>
