Dedicated to my Grandfather Terence "Ter" Boyle, a Farmer, a Poet and an IRA Volunteer against the British Empire during the War for Ireland's Independence-"a great poet, the greatest poet in County Kerry." He was helped by my Grandmother Bridget Murphy Boyle. I don't know if she was IRA too. But she described herself as "a good Sinn Feiner," which in County Kerry meant IRA. I did not know my Grandfather. But my Grandmother was a Tough Old Bird.

RIPs.

During the past three decades, international legal expert Francis A.Boyle has dealt with some of the most difficult problems created byBritain's continued military occupation of six northeast counties inIreland. In so doing, he along with other Irish Americans engaged the formidable Irish American domestic lobby in support of the Irish resistance.

This book addresses some of the most important aspects of their historic campaigns-the struggle to prevent deportation of Irish freedom-fighter,Joe Doherty, the protest against the U.S.-U.K. Extradition Treaty of 2006, the effort to engage U.S. multinationals in implementing the MacBride Principles to roll back discrimination against Catholics in Northern Ireland.

But most significantly, Boyle makes the legal case for viewing the horrific Irish "Potato Famine"-the Irish Hecatomb-as a result, not of laissez-faire economic policy, but of intentional British genocide.

This is the definitive book on all legal/political/human rights aspects of the Irish conflict, including Britain's international legal obligation to decolonize Northern Ireland and going forward, a legal and human rights framework for establishing a United Ireland where all Irish can live in peace with justice for all irrespective of their differences.

United Ireland, Human Rights, and International Law is required reading for Irish Americans, people living in Ireland, and the Irish Diaspora around the world.
