Double-weighted statement
This monograph is the first book devoted solely to the history of Cumann na nGaedheal. Also exploring the creation of the new Irish state during the first decade of independence, it fills a considerable gap in the historiography of both 1920s Ireland and the Irish political system. At almost 115,000 words, the book is the product of exhaustive analysis of ten year’s-worth of state papers, as well as party papers and the collections of fifteen leading politicians. A picture of the state county-by-county over that ten-year period was constructed through extensive analysis of more than fifty regional newspapers.
