A Brief History Of The Irish Republican Army (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798391286059)

The IRA And The Long, Bloody Battle For Irish Independence...
Have you seen the shock headlines when another IRA attack has been launched?
Assassinations. Guerrilla warfare. Attacks on the British forces, government...and even the royal family.
The Irish Republican Army - better known as the IRA - has become one of the most infamous and feared paramilitary organisations in the world.
Yet little is known about the IRA by the average person on the street.
It's common knowledge that the IRA has long fought for Irish independence and that its supporters are determined to completely break free from British authority and influence.
But when did these struggles begin in Ireland? Who were the first leaders of the feared, secretive IRA? How did a relatively small organisation manage to take on the might of the British Army? Why did bloody battles on Irish soil rage on for so long?
In this book, A Brief History Of The Irish Republican Army, the answers to those questions will be delivered.
In this book, you'll learn about:

• The origins of the IRA.
• Daring undercover missions that devastated British forces in Ireland.
• Bloody battles on the streets that will never be forgotten.
• How the IRA went into full attack mode from the 1970s after nearly half a century of inaction.
• How the infamous 'Troubles' began in Northern Ireland and spanned nearly three decades.
• Key events, murders, and emergence of IRA leaders during the Troubles.
• The ruthless assassination of a British royal family member by the IRA which caused headlines all over the world.
• The bomb attack which almost killed a British Prime Minister and members of her UK Government Cabinet.
• Peace finally being reached when the IRA agreed to a ceasefire.
• The current status of the IRA today.

The ultimate aim of this book is to give you a brief overview of those events and a firm understanding of the IRA, what it stands for, and what it fights for
