Product Description
First published in hardcover in 1970 , this is a revised 7th impression, September 1981 edition in paperback of what was to become the standard book on the IRA in the 20th century - and it arguably has not been supplanted since, certainly in impact. Written in 1970-71 after the renewal of the IRA ( and PIRA) as a force in Northern Ireland, it looks primarily back to the origins and evolution of the IRA from the IRB onwards.
'The IRA' by Coogan provided one of the first comprehensive history of the organization that has transformed the Irish nationalist movement during the 20th Century. With clarity and objectivity, Coogan examines the IRA's origins, its foreign links, bombing campaigns, and sectarian violence and historic origins.
