PB 21x14 cm History From the Foreword: ‘It is rare among the protestant community in Ireland to find an exploration of the ethical problems of our history. It is much more comfortable, either to adopt a posture of defiance, or, where events have made that impossible, a discreet silence, as if nothing that required explanation or expiation had happened. ‘Nevertheless, a small evangelical group, inspired by the ideals of Moral Re-Armament, from both North and South, led by the late Dr. George Dallas, a Presbyterian, who gave evidence to the New Ireland Forum, did try to come to grips with the moral legacy of history. 'Roderick Evans’ Memoir is an addition to a small body of literature on the movement, which may come to a greater significance in the future. It takes a lot of courage and a sense of Christian duty to look at uncomfortable questions, which most people would rather ignore or pass over. 'History will highlight the special importance of Clonard Monastery in the coming of peace to Ireland. The Memoir describes the individuals involved, and the reflective exercises that took place at an awful time, when many lives were being lost in cruel circumstances. 'This is an account by one witness of what Christian people can do in such a situation, and even with the coming of peace many of the underlying moral problems still await further analysis and resolution.'
