Description: "A Secret History of the IRA revises our understanding not only of the Irish peace process but also of late-twentieth-century Irish and British history. Written by award-winning Irish journalist Ed Moloney, it tells the dramatic story of the inner workings and deadly rivalries of one of Europe's most secretive terrorist groups and presents us with a new view of Gerry Adams, who maneuvered the IRA into ending its long, bloody conflict with Great Britain."--BOOK JACKET.
