In extensive interviews given to researchers from Boston College, Brendan Hughes and David Ervine spoke with astonishing openness about their turbulent, violent lives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Hughes was a legend in the Republican movement. An 'operator', a gun-runner and mastermind of some of the most savage IRA violence of the Troubles, he was a friend and close ally of Gerry Adams and was by his side during the most brutal years of the conflict. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e David Ervine was the most substantial political figure to emerge from the world of Loyalist paramilitaries. A former Ulster Volunteer Force bomber and confidante of its long-time leader Gusty Spence, Ervine helped steer Loyalism's gunmen towards peace, persuading the UVF's leaders to target IRA and Sinn Fein activists and push them down the road to a ceasefire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Now their stories have been woven into a vivid narrative which provides compelling insight into a secret world and events long hidden from history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEd Moloney\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eA Secret History of the IRA\u003c\/i\u003e and a former Northern Ireland editor of the \u003ci\u003eIrish Times\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSunday Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e.
