SAY NOTHING by PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE

 The author accomplished an awesome review of the Northern Ireland conflict. As a decedent of the Irish nation, I became aware of the struggles between the Catholics and Protestants in Nothern Ireland. I learned much but admittedly, I was overwhelmed by the author who is a Bostonian. He had committed four years of research, seven trips to Northern Ireland and interviews with more than 100 people. He sought collaborations of information provided. One of the sources of information was Gerry Adams of Boston College. What is so strange is that even though he denied that he was a member of the IRA.
