The Arms Crisis of 1970 is a groundbreaking book that sheds new light on the controversial trial and its aftermath. Written by Michael Heney, the book provides an indisputable, forensic interpretation of the events of 1970 and is indispensable for anyone interested in what actually happened 50 years ago. The Arms Crisis of 1970 is the first comprehensive investigation into the arms trial prosecution and how the jury came to their verdict of acquittal. Reviews of the book have been overwhelmingly positive, with Colm Tóibín of the Irish Times calling it an "indisputable, forensic interpretation of the events of 1970" and Diarmaid Ferriter of the Sunday Independent calling it a "brilliant de-bunking of the myths, heroes and villains of the Arms Crisis." Mary O'Rourke of the Sunday Independent describes the book as a "ground-breaking book" that strips away the lies associated with the great Irish scandal of 1970. The Arms Crisis of 1970 is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish history and politics.
