Synopsis
A first-hand account of life in a Belfast war zone. In April 1972 the author left his native Cork and moved to Belfast's Ballymurphy, an IRA stronghold then embroiled in a low-intensity war with the British army. The following morning he woke up to a gun battle. Down North tells the story of the next four years. It is told with earthy candour, insight, empathy and, above all, humour.
