Book Synopsis
A vital examination of Northern Ireland fifty years since the start of the Troubles, focusing on the events of 1969

Trade Review
Ken's books adorn the shelves not only of those who witnessed these events unfold at first hand but also those of us who grew up in the shadow of the worst years of the Troubles. Having researched and written about the Troubles for over twenty years, I have found no better introduction to the military dimension of the conflict than Ken's work. -- Dr Aaron Edwards
Ken Wharton has written a compelling history of the Troubles, the first to encompass the full 50 years. Full of authentic detail, this is exciting history at its best - and it's told with objectively and passion. His knowledge of the Troubles is second to none. -- Damien Lewis
Ken Wharton deserves a knighthood for his brilliant work illuminating a dark passage of Britain's past. Torn Apart is everything history should be: truthful, wise and humane. -- Patrick Bishop
