How Stormont Fell

The Northern Ireland Troubles.
"This book is about the fall of Stormont. It chronicles with clarity and insight the bewildering whirlwind of events which led to a situation unparalleled in modern European politics. Henry Kelly has drawn together all the vital strands in the story: significant political incidents and speeches, the escalation of violence, the introduction of internment without trial, the growth and importance of the civil disobedience campaign, and of the Protestant Vanguard movement. He also provides new and critical insights into the political figures who have dominated the scene for the past year: Brian Faulkner, John Hume, William Craig, Ian Paisley and others."
