Description: "This study of political loyalism and the Northern Ireland peace process is the first of its kind to explain how Loyalist paramilitarism has responded to the transition from conflict to post-conflict society in Northern Ireland. Drawing from original interview material with key players in British and Irish governments as well as intermediaries, clergy, political representatives and paramilitary leaders, Graham Spencer weaves together a contemporary political history through the perspectives of direct dialogue."--Jacket.
