Product Description
A paperback copy, published by Sphere Publications, 1972, first published 1970, of Bowyer Bell's standard classic work on the evolution in Ireland of militant republicanism - The IRA Secret Army.
The Secret Army is the definitive work on the Irish Republican Army. It is an absorbing account of a movement that has had a profound effect on the shaping of the modern Irish state. The secret army in the service of the invisible Republic has had a powerful effect on Irish events over the past twenty-five years. These hidden corridors of power interest Bell and inspired him to spend more time with the IRA than many volunteers spent in it. This book is the culmination of many years of work and tens of thousands of hours of interviews. Bell's unique access to the leadership of the republican movement and his contacts with all involved-British politicians, Irish politicians, policemen, arms smugglers, and others committed or opposed to the IRA -explain why The Secret Army is the book on the subject.
Tanning to pages, especially preliminary pages. Closed crack to back spine edge.
