Description:... The book combines a personal retelling of the period which produced modern Irish Republicanism, with a study of how its political and military strategies have evolved. O'Doherty argues that the achievement of the armed struggle was to create the conditions in which agreement inside Northern Ireland would be impossible, so that those who wished to bring peace would be forced to consider a progression towards Irish unification
