Excerpt from Fifty Years of Irish Journalism, 1911 A portion of the following pages was written during the nine months - excepting the brief vacation intervals - which I spent at the Parnell Commission in London. The Court sat four days each week, some times only three, and this gave me a good deal of spare time which I utilised in writing portions of these reminiscences. People in every part of Ireland have repeatedly said to me Why don't you write your reminiscences My answer, speaking generally, for the last twenty years, has been that I had not time. Recently, however, I have had occasional short periods of leisure in which I have been enabled to complete my self-imposed task. I am well aware that the narrative is very much of a personal nature, but possibly it may prove of some interest as a picture of journalistic life in Ireland during the troublous times to which it relates.xii fifty years OF irish journalism. This work makes no pretension to being a history of the period which it covers. A very fair idea of that history might, I think, be gathered from the newspapers of the time, and possibly, for the period from 1867 to 1889 during which I was correspondent, and, frequently, the special correspondent of The Daily News, that journal may be found to contain as good a summary as exists. I know that I was the most energetic of all the Irish correspondents of the London papers during those years. I have not attempted to adhere to chronological order, which I consider would not have been suitable for the general plan of the work.

In 1969, an eruption of armed violence traumatized Northern Ireland and transformed a period of street protest over civil rights into decades of paramilitary warfare by republicans and loyalists. In this evocative memoir, Malachi O'Doherty not only recounts his experiences of living through the Troubles, but also recalls a revolution in his lifetime. However, it wasn't the bloody revolution that was shown on TV but rather the slow reshaping of the culture of Northern Ireland - a real revolution that was entirely overshadowed by the conflict. Incorporating interviews with political, professional and paramilitary figures, O'Doherty draws a profile of an era that produced real social change, comparing and contrasting it with today, and asks how frail is the current peace as Brexit approaches, protest is back on the streets and violence is simmering in both republican and loyalist camps.
