Inside This Book (learn more)

First Sentence:
Without its baggage of troubles, and the resultant 30 years of media coverage which sent its flames around the globe, Belfast could have been seen in another light: as an extravagance of pubs and churches; as a seaport rich in Victorian building on the western edge of Europe where they built the ill-fated Titanic, as the home of Irish linen; as host to Nobel Laureate poet Seamus Heaney's campus, George Best's schooldays, Van Morrison's streets, and a liquor saloon preserved as a national monument immortalised in Odd Man Out, Carol Reed's seminal film noir.
