Description

In the tumultuous backdrop of Northern Ireland during the late 1960s, Huw Bennett's compelling narrative dives into the chaos that unfolded as the British Army intervened amid rising tensions. As civil strife simmered and threats of war loomed large, Bennett paints a vivid portrait of the soldiers' experiences, grappling with complex decisions that would shape the course of history.

Through meticulous research and personal accounts, he reveals the human side of the military presence, showcasing both the bravery and struggles faced by those on the ground. The soldiers were caught in a web of political turmoil, tasked with maintaining order in a community rife with deep-seated divisions.

Bennett's writing invites readers into the heart of this challenging period, blending historical context with poignant stories of conflict and resilience. The book offers an eye-opening look at the realities of war beyond the battlefield, highlighting the nuanced relationships forged and fractured in Ireland's often-unforgiving landscape.
