Only a Soldier Knows

Ray Lane

Paperback. *Ray Lane’s career began when he was tasked with defusing IRA bombs on the border at the height of The Troubles. He transferred this expertise to Lebanon and later worked as a diplomat in Bosnia during the civil war, witnessing horrific acts committed by people against their own neighbours. The horrors of that war left a deep, permanent mark on him and he would later go on testify in war crimes trials about what he saw. Many years later, when the NATO forces in Afghanistan were facing a daily onslaught of Taliban bombs, it was Ray they sent for, as his experience from Ireland gave him an insight unlike anyone else’s. In this gripping memoir, Ray speaks about his incredible career as a soldier and what it takes to be the person who, instead of running away, walks towards a 1,000kg bomb.

Under the Rainbow: Inside John Bruton’s Coalition Government

Shane Kenny

Hardback. From late 1994 to June 1997 Fine Gael, Labour and Democratic Left were a coalition government led by John Bruton, arguably the most left-wing government in the history of the state. Shane Kenny provides the reader with the ultimate fly-on-the-wall insider account of this crucial period in Irish politics: one which contained highly significant breakthroughs in the Northern Ireland peace process, the most high-profile murder in the history of the state (Veronica Guerin), the establishment of the ‘payments to politicians’ tribunal which finally exposed the sources of former Taoiseach Charles Haughey’s wealth, and a divorce referendum which heralded a changing Ireland. This is also a story of tragedy, both political and human; of those who died and were injured needlessly by the resumption of IRA violence; of a government with good potential which fell; of timing which was wrong, and of an economic disaster that could have been averted, or at least substantially mitigated.
