"An essential reference work for those interested in the roots of the conflict in the North." —Irish Post "Few could quarrel with the publisher's description of this as a classic." —Books Ireland "There is no denying the powerful ways in which McCann recounts the events of those early years of the troubles." —Robert Fisk, The Times "So honest, so human and so readable." —Irish Times "[A] powerful memoir...The value of the book lies in its capturing sharply a particular viewpoint that ended up being highly consequential." —FiveBooks, The best books on Modern Irish History
