THE INSIDE STORY OF THE BITTER INHERITANCE OF A 300-YEAR OLD WAR.
As the IRA turned political agitation into practised urban warfare, the British government responded with increasingly sophisticated counter-measures. Both sides played down their intentions while behind the scenes they developed the strategy and technology of full-fledged war.
With access to top-level experts, military veteran and historian Tony Geraghty reveals the sinister pattern of action and reaction in this domestic conflict. Whether or not the politics of the 1998 Good Friday Agreement finally break the grip of the “physical force tradition”, the legacy of covert warfare engendered by this long and bloody struggle will affect British and Irish liberty for years to come.
Praise for Tony Geraghty’s 'BRIXMIS'
“Knocks the spots off most fictional attempts to tackle the same subjects.”

“Geraghty is one of the few military writers who could have delivered this excellent book.”
'SUNDAY TIMES'
“Deighton, Le CArre, Forsyth and Co., eat your hearts out. There’s nothing like a true spy story to knock the fiction off the bookshelf and former Para Tony Geraghty has delivered the killer punch.”
