Himself alone: David Trimble and the ordeal of unionism

Trama

How did David Trimble, the 'bête noire' of Irish nationalism and 'bien pensant' opinion, transform himself into a peacemaker? How did this unfashionable, 'petit bourgeois' Orangeman come to win a standing ovation at the Labour Party conference? How, indeed, did this taciturn academic with few real intimates succeed in becoming the leader of the least intellectual party in the United Kingdom, the Ulster Unionists?
