Synopsis

A vivid, behind-the-scenes portrait of Ireland’s treaty era, told through the voices of its leaders and observers.

Drawn from the historic sessions of Dáil Éireann, this book presents pen portraits of key figures, debates, and moments that shaped Ireland’s path to independence. It blends scene-setting with on-the-floor dynamics, offering a humane, human look at politicians, journalists, and citizens as they navigate loyalty, power, and vision for the nation.

With a focus on dialogue, mood, and the dramatic shifts of 1921–1922, the collection brings to light the personalities, tensions, and pivotal decisions that defined the formation of a new government and the uncertain birth of a state.

• Meet the leaders and their moments of conviction, doubt, and resolve.
• Witness the interplay between public discourse and private strategy.
• See how language, symbolism, and procedure influence history in real time.
• Explore the human side of political change—from admiration to controversy.

Ideal for readers of modern Irish history who want a grounded, character-driven view of a landmark era.
