Ireland's Violent Frontier by H Patterson

The IRA's ability to exploit the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland was central to the organisation's capacity to wage its 'Long War' over a quarter of a century. This book is the first to look at the role of the border in sustaining the Provisionals and its central role in Anglo-Irish relations throughout the Troubles.

“Ireland’s Violent Frontier – The Border and Anglo-Irish Relations During The Troubles … has been thoroughly well-considered and assimilated by way of acute research/thorough analyses… Thorough, comprehensive and very readable, Ireland’s Violent Frontier is a most worthy addition to the current spate of literature being written on what remains a most complex and inflammatory subject.” (David Marx, David Marx Book Reviews, davidmarxbookreviews.wordpress.com, November, 2016)

Henry Patterson is Professor of Politics at the University of Ulster, Belfast, Northern Ireland.
