de Valera and the Ulster Question, 1917-1973

By John Bowman

Book Overview

This is a radical reinterpretation of the lifelong preoccupation of Eamon de Valera, the great founding father of the independent Irish Republic, with the partition of Ireland. Bowman provides an incisive analysis of de Valera's own policy and his political legacy on a question which still lies at the heart of modern Irish politics and Anglo-Irish relations.
