Summary:
"In the
Name
of the
Father
tells the true saga of Gerry Conlon. A petty thief in strife-torn '70s Belfast, Gerry's main interests are getting drunk and partying, much to the dismay of his quite, frail
father
Giuseppe. When Gerry angers the IRA, his
father
sends him to England, where his antics land him in the wrong place at the wrong time. Innocent, but forced to confess to a savage terrorist bombing, he is sentenced to life imprisonment as one of the 'Guildford Four.' An innocent Guiseppe is also arrested and jailed, and while behind bars, Gerry slowly learns that his
father
's seeming weakness masks an unmatched inner strength and wisdom. Working with a fiercely dedicated lawyer, Gerry determines to prove his innocence, clear his
father
's
name
and expose the truth behind one of the most shameful legal events in recent history."--Container.
