Description
Book SynopsisAn insight into the beliefs and political ideology of the UDA and the Ulster Freedom Fighters
Trade Review"Colin Crawford's book is certainly to be welcomed ... As a probation officer who works with former loyalist prisoners, Crawford was almost uniquely placed to produce an 'ethnography' on loyalism, in which sections of the UDA describe themselves and their actions, in their own words." Roger Cottrell, Lobster 4
