Information/books/weblinks on Belfast History (Industrial, Social, Troubles etc)

Berbatov

Hi,

I've recently been spending some time in Belfast and I'm gradually beginning to get some overview of the amazingly interesting history of the city. I'm looking for anyone who has any advice on books, websites, etc which will explain some more of the history which I find so interesting. Currently I'm particularly interested in finding our more detailed stuff about the troubles, characters, motives and feelings among all involved, but also have an interest in reading about the industrialization of the city and it's progress to where it is today. I guess all these thins are intertwined but I understand that some authors may have focused on particular aspects in the whole story.

All suggestions welcome.

Tks,

B
