Description
Ireland During the Second World War: A Hidden History This book offers a fresh perspective on Ireland's experience during World War II. Bryce Evans examines the social and economic history of Ireland during this period, revealing the challenges faced by the Irish state and how ordinary people responded to emergency measures. The book sheds light on the consequences of Winston Churchill's economic war against neutral Ireland, exploring how the Irish government coped with the crisis and the emergence of a hidden world of black markets, smugglers, and rebels. As a unique comparison of Ireland's economic and social conditions with those of other European neutral states, this study provides valuable insights for anyone interested in understanding this pivotal moment in world history. Now available in paperback, this book is an essential read for those seeking to deepen their knowledge of Ireland's role in World War II.
