Blood on the Shamrock: An American Ponders Northern Ireland, 1968-1990

The tragic situation in Northern Ireland has been well described as the world’s prototype of an intractable political conflict with correlations in nationalism and religion. This book explores the current conflict between Ireland and Great Britain with scholarly impartiality, presenting an able, fair and singularly unbiased picture of the Irish scene in which so much blood has been spilled - Irish, English, Scottish and Welsh.
