Reviews
“It is a ground-breaking text in relation to policing in Northern Ireland; particularly since it is written through the lens of the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC), focusing on the most recent Troubles that commenced in 1968, ending with the 1998 Good Friday Agreement (GFA). … . Highly recommended to members of the PHS.” (Peter Williams, Police History Society Newsletter, Issue 98, March, 2019)
