A year later four individuals - Paddy Armstrong, Gerry Conlon, Paul Hill and Carole Richards who became known as the Guildford Four - were accused of carrying out the bombings for the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA). Under severe interrogation the defendants confessed, later retracting those confessions in court. They were given some of the longest prison sentences ever imposed in Britain This is the book that campaigned for their innocence. Featuring fresh material, including documents revealing that the police knew who the bombers were before the original trial.
