A Force Like No Other by Colin Breen

A personal history of Royal Ulster Constabulary officers who served through the Troubles, placing lived experience at the centre of Northern Ireland's policing history.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine love of history, politics and books that explored the people behind major events. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each book now looking for a new home where it can continue to be read and appreciated.

Written by Colin Breen, A Force Like No Other: The Real Stories of the RUC Men and Women Who Policed the Troubles brings together the experiences of Royal Ulster Constabulary officers who served during one of the most difficult periods in Northern Ireland's recent history.

Rather than concentrating only on institutions and policy, the book focuses on personal testimony, daily danger, pressure, resilience and the long-term human impact of policing through the Troubles.

A compelling read for those interested in Irish history, Northern Ireland, police history and first-hand accounts of people living and working through political conflict.
