In the first objective and comprehensive survey of its kind, Dillon examines the IRA bombing campaign in Britain before and after the Second World War; the IRA's flirtation with Nazism and Eire's wartime neutrality, and how that conditioned subsequent British policy towards Ireland; and the bombing campaigns of the 1970s and 1980s. Dillon's remarkable study also provides new evidence of the political and military mistakes which made British cities the most vulnerable in Europe to terrorist attack and explains why Government agencies failed to eradicate the threat.
The first to reveal the existence of what the IRA called its 'England Department', Dillon provides new material on how that IRA cell functioned and what its objectives were; why the British Government held secret talks with the IRA/Sinn Fein amid the carnage of Warrington and other atrocities, and what was behind the IRA's reluctance to denounce the Downing Street Declaration.
