NORTHERN IRELAND & U.S. GUNS, MONEY. The American Connection, U.S. Guns,
Money, and Influence In Northern Ireland. 1987 Jack Holland. Photos. The many
contradictions surrounding Irish-American efforts in their ancestral
land.They are motivated by an image of pre-famine Ireland from which they
were expelled by enemies & to which they harbor a desire to return. For the
IRA, the American connection means guns & money; for Catholics, it presents
hope that U.S. pressure will cause the British to change course; for the
British, it is a nemesis; as American politicians--viewed as puppets of the
powerful Irish lobby--add to the ferment in the North. 272 pages, index.
