Description: Title: The Padre: The True Story of the Irish Priest Who Armed the IRA with Gaddafi's Money Author: O'Leary, Jennifer Publisher: Merrion Press Binding: Paperback Pages: 272 Dimensions: 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.80d Product Weight: 0.95 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9781785374616 For almost two decades, Father Patrick Ryan evaded intelligence agencies across Europe and was, for a time, one of the most wanted men in Britain. In The Padre, award-winning investigative journalist Jennifer O'Leary exposes the exploits of this notorious former Irish priest and active IRA supporter. Revealing sensational details divulged to her during exclusive secret meetings with Ryan, the book lifts the lid on the true extent of the priest's involvement with the IRA and its campaign of terror across Europe, Britain and Ireland - from being a trusted link between the regime of Muammar Gaddafi and the IRA, to his involvement in improving IRA explosive devices, which made possible the almost successful assassination attempt on Margaret Thatcher and her Cabinet in Brighton. The Padre tells the truly remarkable story of this man of the cloth, who, decades on, is still unrepentant about his ruthless zealotry in pursuit of money, weapons and assistance for the IRA's violence. Indeed, his one regret is that he wasn't even more effective., Ships Fast From The USA! Authorized Dealer
