Opis

Rebel Hearts is a detailed and revealing account of the psychological underworld of Irish Republicanism. Kevin Toolis has investigated the lives of men and women who, for the 25 years of the IRA's war with Britain formed the backbone of its effort. Each chapter explores the world in which history and the republican (and loyalist) interpretation of it dominate lives and deaths). This book does not seek to explain the roots of the conflict in Northern Ireland in a direct historical narrative form, but constructs, and reconstructs, its history through a series of connected and detailed individual portraits. The book is updated with two new chapters.
