2008-09-08 A Brilliant Book

This is my forth copy of this book as I gave the others away to friends,some of them living in Ireland. Northern Ireland,has always been a subject,I wanted to know more of,and this book does the trick,in more ways than one. If I could give it twenty stars I would.
I served in N I in the 70s,and over the past 30 years,I have asked myself,what the hell was it all about.-What caused it all to start with. Well this book goes a long way,in giving me the answers.
People may think I am wrong when I say -you cant hold a country responsible for the atrocities that happend on it's own door step.Well you cant,what you need to do is find out what caused it to start with. This book will show,that it all began long before we were even born. Does politics ring a bell?. We no longer blame the American Indians,for things that the Americans do wrong,and after all is said and done,its the Indians,that are the true Americans.-Know where I'm coming from?.-.
Now we have a kind of peace between us,lets look at the subject from an historical point of view,and see if we cant move on.This book will help some to do just that.A brilliant book,that should be on the shelf,of all,who are interested,in the history,of Ireland.
