This is an exploration of the hidden patterns of the past, rather than
its surface details, this study reveals the potent, often unconscious
forces which motivate both sides in the current Northern Ireland
conflict. A.T.Q. Stewart is the author of "The Pagoda War: Lord Dufferin
and the Fall of the Kingdom of Ava", "Edward Carson", "A Deeper
Silence: The Hidden Origins of the United Irishmen" and "The Summer
Soldiers: The 1798 Rebellion in Antrim and Down."

This is the best book you will ever find at explaining in very readable
language the history of Ulster, the attitudes of people there today and,
ultimately, the Troubles from the 1920s onwards. Tony Stewart should,
in many eyes, have had a personal chair in the university for his work
but sadly didn't, retired early from the university, and is now no
longer with us.
A detailed and interesting analyse of this difficult subject .Could be
read in isolation or a context of Ulster studies. Revealing.
