About the Author
Patrick Bishop was born in 1952. He joined the Observer in 1979 and covered Ireland for that paper for three years before going to the Falklands with the Task Force. The Winter War, which he wrote with John Witherow, records his experience in the Falklands. He has been on the staff of ITN, and the Sunday Times and is now a correspondent for the Sunday Telegraph. Eamonn Mallie was born in 1951 and educated at Trinity College, Dublin. He has worked for several years as a political journalist in Ireland. He is a regular contributor to nationally networked programmes on Independent Radio and LBC and is political correspondent with Downtown Radio in Belfast.
From the Back Cover
It is now over thirty years since the present wave of conflict in Northern Ireland began and since the birth of the Provisional IRA. In spite of the huge loss of life and the very considerable political upheaval it has caused, very little is known about the organization.
The Provisional IRA is the first full-length study to be undertaken since the Troubles began in 1969 and it is an authoritative examination of the objectives, structure and leaders of the IRA. It draws on long and unusually frank interviews with IRA activists and is an invaluable and fascinating account.
