4.9/5 (18978 ratings)

Description:The violence which erupted in Northern Ireland in 1969 and has been continuing sporadically since then was, in Liam de Paor's opinion, easily predictable from the turbulent history of the region.The issue of civil rights for the Roman Catholic minority produced widespread sympathy, but this is basically more than just a religious dispute. Almost equally deprived in Ulster are the poor Protestants, yet they oppose the Catholics with as much ferocity as the Paisleyite extremists.Liam de Paor is the author of several books on Ireland and is a lecturer at University College, Dublin. In this skilful and perceptive analusis he takes us through the long and difficult history of Ireland since the great settlement of the seventeenth century and through the struggle for independence. He shows how the Six Counties came to be treated separately and how the religious divisions of the north have been used as an instrument of policy.In this Pelican edition Liam de Paor has added an introduction and revised his final chapter to cover the more recent events down to the resignation of Major Chichester-Clark.'By far the most comprehensive, best written and most rewarding book yet published on the Northern Ireland situation and its full background' - New Statesman'The best short summary of the Ulster problem to appear so far' - Guardian[from the 1971 Pelican edition]We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
