In the first book detailing the social and economic history of
Ireland during the Second World War, Bryce Evans reveals the real
story of the Irish emergency. Revealing just how precarious the
Irish state's economic position was at the time, the book examines
the consequences of Winston Churchill's economic war against
neutral Ireland. It explores how the Irish government coped with
the crisis and how ordinary Irish people reacted to emergency state
control of the domestic marketplace. A hidden history of black
markets, smugglers, rogues and rebels emerges, providing a
fascinating slice of real life in Ireland during a crucial period
in world history. As the first comparison of economic and social
conditions in Ireland with those of the other European neutral
states - Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Portugal - the book will
make essential reading for the informed general reader, students
and academics alike. -- .
