Summary
  • Using access from his years as a senior Washington reporter, Conor O'Clery masterfully blends together interviews, background, and briefings with President Clinton, Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams, Deputy National Security Advisor Nancy Soderberg, former House Speaker Tom Foley, James Molyneaux for the Ulster Unionist Party, and Social Democratic and Labour Party leader John Hume. O'Clery tells the story of backdoor diplomacy, international intrigue, and the monumental.
  • Struggle between two world powers. O'Clery's account expertly tracks the efforts of everyone involved - government officials on all sides, IRA leaders, and the individual Americans and Irish-Americans - in attempting to bring about an end to the deadly conflict that has lasted more than a quarter of a century.
