Description
Burnt Out: How 'the Troubles' Began by Michael McCann The events of August 1969 had a profound impact on the lives of thousands of innocent people, forcing them to flee their homes. This devastating period of violence and intimidation was sparked by a combination of factors, including state forces and unionist government actions. The truth about what happened that summer has often been obscured, but Burnt Out: How 'the Troubles' Began sheds light on the events that led to three decades of brutality. The book examines the role of state forces and the unionist government in the violence that erupted in Derry and Belfast, and assesses how and why the violence began. This is a crucial account of one of the most significant conflicts of the 20th century, and is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the outbreak and causes of 'the Troubles'.
