Notes:
Notes.The resounding yes vote in Ireland endorsing the Good Friday Agreement created an historical opportunity to end centuries of conflict. In the North, over seventy-one percent of voters voted for the agreement. ... As Chairman of the Peace Negotiations, [Senator] George Mitchell is in a unique position to tell the story of how the Agreement came about. Invited to chair the talks by John Major and John Bruton, Mitchell spent two long and hard years of negotiation in Northern Ireland. ... Mitchell's frank and illuminating book tells the story of his experiences, his relationships with leading players, Mo Mowlam, Gerry Adams, John Hume, Ian Paisley and David Trimble, and with many less well-known figures, who acted as peace brokers and go-betweens.
