Edition
Cahal McLaughlin is a senior lecturer at the School of Media, Film and Journalism at the University of Ulster. He is also a documentary filmmaker whose recent projects include Inside Stories: Memories of the Maze and Long Kesh Prison and We Never Give Up.
A book about memory, trust, and an invaluable historical recording. It would be a disservice ... if the memories and voices in these films didn’t attract as wide an audience as possible.
A good example of how research and practice can walk hand in hand. ... Very well written.
