Description: "Drawing on original research into explosive evidence which had been concealed for twenty-five years, Bloody Sunday and the Rule of Law Northern Ireland offers a devastating critique of the official Widgery Inquiry into the shooting of innocent and unarmed civilians by British soldiers on 30 January 1972 - 'Bloody Sunday'.

The detailed and cogent exposition of how, and the extent to which, the rule of law was sacrificed in order to achieve the result desired by the political and security establishments is profoundly disturbing."--BOOK JACKET.
