The Northern Ireland 'Troubles' (1968-1998) claimed over 3,500 lives and left many more maimed or scarred for life. It grabbed headlines in Britain, Ireland and around the world because of the shear scale of the killings, bombings and attacks and the length of the conflict.

I have just written a blog post on the Writing the Troubles blog about foreign reporting of the Troubles. Read it here.
