Sinn Fin: A Hundred Turbulent Years (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780862787707)

Sinn F in is one of the oldest and most controversial parties in Irish politics. This is the fascinating story of a party which has repeatedly reshaped its identity over a hundred years.

Brian Feeney traces Sinn F in's zigzag path towards constitutional politics and presents a critical analysis of the party's personalities and policies over the century. He shows how it has arrived at last in government in the north with hopes of a future role in coalition in the republic, and confidently predicting a united Ireland. This is an important and timely book from an esteemed journalist, and an impartial analysis of Sinn F in's involvement in Irish politics, north and south, over the last hundred years.
