Taylor, a veteran journalist with more than 25 years of experience covering Northern Ireland, investigates the rise of the IRA and its political wing, Sinn Fein, drawing on interviews with IRA members, Irish and British soldiers, and eyewitnesses. Covers the history of conflict in the region from 1916 to the present, concentrating on the period from the 1970s through the 1990s. Peter Taylor, OBE is a British journalist and documentary-maker. He is best known for his coverage of the political and armed conflict in Northern Ireland, widely known as the Troubles, and for his investigation of Al Qaeda and Islamist extremism in the wake of 9/11. He also covers the issue of smoking and health and the politics of tobacco for which he was awarded the WHO Gold Medal for Services to Public Health. He has written books and researched, written and presented television documentaries over a period of more than forty years. In 2014, Taylor was awarded both a Royal Television Society lifetime achievement award and a BAFTA special award. Over the past twenty-five years, more than three thousand people have died as the IRA fought to force the British government out of Ireland. Peter Taylor brings us the extraordinary story of The Troubles that have ravaged Northern Ireland through his unprecedented access to IRA members and documents and Irish and British soldiers, politicians, and eyewitnesses. From the Easter rising in 1916 to the ceasefire in effect today, the history and politics of the conflict are laid out here with deadly clarity. Once jailed as terrorists, IRA leaders now have been feted at the White House, elected to Parliament in London, and even shared in the Nobel Peace Prize. In this brilliant account, Behind the Mask brings us up to date on one of the world's most enduring conflicts, now on the verge of resolution with the historic 1998 Peace Accord.
