Présentation de l'éditeur

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.The Battle of the Bogside was a very large communal riot that took place in Derry, Northern Ireland during 12 August 1969. The fighting was between residents of the Bogside area and the Royal Ulster Constabulary. The rioting erupted after the RUC attempted to disperse nationalists who were protesting against a loyalist Apprentice Boys parade along the city walls, past the nationalist Bogside area. Rioting continued for three days in the Bogside. The RUC was unable to enter the area, however, and the British Army was deployed to restore order. The riot, which sparked widespread violence elsewhere in Northern Ireland, is commonly seen as one of the first major confrontations in the conflict known as the Troubles.
