Publications
The Partition of Ireland 1918-1925
‘A scholarly, detailed and historically-minded analysis of an enduringly central feature of Irish politics.’
Professor Richard English, Queen’s University Belfast
‘Robert Lynch has written an insightful and absorbing study of partition. Questions are raised about how we understand the nature of partition, its meaning in modern Irish history and how it shaped and reshaped identities of those living with its impact, both north and south.’
Professor Maria Luddy, University of Warwick
The Northern IRA and the Early Years of Partition 1920-1922
‘This is an extremely important book. Robert Lynch combnes fne scholarhsip with considerable abaility as a writer of a gripping narrative.’
Professor Richard English, University of Stirling
‘Robert Lynch's study of the Northern IRA is timely and incisive. It refocuses the study of revolutionary violence away from the much celebrated ambushes of the south and west of Ireland and confronts the often neglected sectarian war in the north-east. It is an impressive boook and makes a significant contribution to its field.'
Dr John Regan, University of Dundee
