This book is an examination of the "prison of Irish history", back to its very beginnings, to identify the principal groups involved in Ireland. It traces the emergence of each group and their links over the ages, establishing how past facts have bred present myths. Revised to cover the events of recent years, the book provides an insight into the country's current political situation, especially in light of the 1994 ceasefire agreement.

His achievment is to explain, lucidly & vividly, the bloodlines of the conflict... Kee makes jumping centuries seem easy and, with flashes of gallows humour, exhilarating (Thomas PAKENHAM)
Mr Kee writes with a combination of verve, clarity and insight (S. TEL.)
I have seldom, if ever, read anything so superbyly constructed...So evocative, so acute, so replete with perception, that it will inspire the reader to want to know more... (Brian Walden)
* Now completely revised and updated this evocative and insightful account remains an essential survey of the country and its people, past and present.
