Free Ireland is Gerry Adams' personal statement on the meaning, importance, and inspiration of modern Irish republicanism. Adams reviews the history of Irish nationalism and British policies toward it, and catalogues propaganda and human rights abuses on both sides. A new conclusion for this North American edition outlines Adams' proposal for attaining lasting peace in Ireland, and discusses the impact on his visit to the United States in February of 1994 under the constraint of a 48-hour visa.

Falls Road looks completely different now from when Gerry Adams was a child living on it. Many of the businesses, houses, and landmarks have been demolished in favor of new developments. Even when Adams first wrote his memoir of Falls Road in 1982, many of these places were still around―a point Adams makes very clearly in his foreword to this most recent edition.
