An important book
It is hard to say "I love this book" because what it describes is so terrible. But it gives voice to the people who were in Derry on January 29, 1972 and allows them to describe in their own words how it came to pass that the British Army opened fire on a civil rights march, killing 14 people. This book, and its editor, share a great deal of the credit for reopening the official inquiry into the events of Bloody Sunday and causing the British government to at last take a long, hard look at whether this terrible event ever should have happened.

Any excellent photographic account
Although of course I had heard of Bloody Sunday, I did not understand exactly what happened, I was too young at the time.

This book contains some very touching accounts of those who were there and relatives of those who died. An excellent collection of photographs present a very sombering account.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in the subject.

One sided version of the story
This book is biased, one-sided nonsense. If the British soldiers fired "indiscriminately" into the crowd then why were no women, children or old people killed? If you look at pictures of the crowd that day there were plenty of these present. The Paras were shot at by IRA snipers, attacked with acid bombs and incendiaries, and retaliated. Regretfully, some innocent men were killed in the crossfire. The allegation that the soldiers were a bunch of psychos who randomly shot at an unarmed peaceful demonstration is a lie.

A One sided Account
I have never read such a one sided account of a regretable incident in Northern Ireland's history. All the fact's from both sides have not come out and until that happens we will not the truth. I laugh at people from other countries who think that they know everything about the troubles in (NI)unless you have lived here you don't know what it's like.

Repiticious
Although I found most of this book exciting and insightful to read towards the end it started getting repiticious. Most of the people had the around the same thing to say, so after the 250th page I had known all I needed to know basically. There was new information in some letters, but for the most part they had the same thing to say. It was very helpful in fully understanding Bloody Sunday and so that is why I have to give it 4 stars.
