内容简介：
He’s been imprisoned, shot at, denounced, shunned, and banned,
yet Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams remains resolute in his belief
that peace is the only viable option for the Irish people. Adams
led the oldest revolutionary movement in Ireland on an
extraordinary journey from armed insurrection to active
participation in government. Now he tells the story of the
tumultuous series of events that led to the historic Good Friday
Agreement as only he can: with a tireless crusader’s conviction and
an insider’s penetrating insight.
In vivid detail, Adams describes the harrowing attack on his life,
and he offers new details about the peace process. We learn of
previously undisclosed talks between republicans and the British
government, and of conflicts and surprising alliances between key
players. Adams reveals details of his discussions with the IRA
leadership and tells how republicans differed, “dissidents”
emerged, and the first IRA cessation of violence broke down. He
recounts meetings in the Clinton White House, tells what roles
Irish-Americans and South Africans played in the process, and
describes the secret involvement of those within the Catholic
Church. Then—triumphantly—this inspiring story climaxes with the
Good Friday Agreement: what was agreed and what was promised.
Gerry Adams brings a sense of immediacy to this story of hope in
what was long considered an intractable conflict. He conveys the
acute tensions of the peace process and the ever-present sense of
teetering on the brink of both joyous accomplishment and continued
despair. With a sharp eye and sensitive ear for the more humorous
foibles of political allies and enemies alike, Adams offers
illuminating portraits of the leading characters through
cease-fires and standoffs, discussions and confrontations. Among
the featured players are John Major, Tony Blair, Bill and Hillary
Clinton, Jean Kennedy Smith, and Nelson Mandela.
As the preeminent republican strategist of his generation, Gerry
Adams provides the first comprehensive account of the principles
and tactics underpinning modern Irish republicanism. And in a world
where peace processes are needed more urgently than ever, A
Farther Shore provides a template for conflict
resolution.

Advance praise for A Farther Shore
“A rollicking good read, replete with murder, noble deeds,
hilarious mistakes, treachery, and chicanery, from the pen of a
nonjudgmental, gifted writer who is a decent, honorable leader,
Gerry Adams.”
—Malachy McCourt, author of A Monk Swimming
“The Irish peace process had to overcome decades—if not
centuries—of hate, mistrust, and oppression. Its success was a true
triumph of the human spirit. No one did more to make it happen than
Gerry Adams. A Farther Shore tells you why. It is gripping, moving,
and on the money.”
—Congressman Peter King, co-chairman of the Ad Hoc Committee for
Irish Affairs
“The refusal to acknowledge the roots of con?ict guarantees its
perpetuation, whether in Ireland, in Iraq, or on our own shores.
Thankfully there are voices—and Gerry Adams will always be among
them—who are prepared to penetrate the silence. A Farther Shore is
a memoir of a place and a time rather than of a man; Adams, no
fool, knows that his story is not the only one. That he has the
bravery to pull aside the silence is just one of his
gifts. That he has offered us a history with hope is yet
another.”
—Colum McCann, author of Dancer: A Novel
