Danny Morrison gives a favourable review to the BBC NI’s security correspondent Barney Rowan’s recent book Armed Struggle. Morrison usefully quotes Rowan’s own pocket synopsis:
This book is the story of the many battles since 1994: the battle over guns and governments; the power struggles; the fights and the feuds within loyalism; the emergence of the republican dissidents, who have refused to follow the Adams and McGuinness gospel; the struggles within a divided unionism; and the continuing intelligence war involving spooks and the spies in the IRA.
