I.N.L.A - Deadly Divisions

Poorly written and, according to former Republicans, biased. The authors fail to mention that one of them is a former member of the Official IRA, which seems relevant in a book about an organization that began its existence with a bloody split from the Official IRA. But still worth reading for those interested in the Troubles as the only fairly comprehensive history of the INLA. The members of the INLA come off as incompetent, murderous buffoons for the most part. On a minor point of complaint, the authors appear to have been overzealous in their desire to ensure that any reference to the Official IRA was featured the appropriate upper case "O" in the word "Official", because virtually every use of the word "official" in the book is capitalized, whether or not it should be. One wishes the book were simply better written more than anything
