Of the countries that remained neutral during the Second World War,
none was more controversial than Ireland, with accusations of
betrayal and hypocrisy poisoning the media. Whereas previous
histories of Ireland in the war years have focused on high
politics. That Neutral Island brings to life the atmosphere of a
country forced to live under rationing, heavy censorship and the
threat of invasion. It unearths the motivations of those thousands
who left Ireland to fight in the British forces and shows how
ordinary people tried to make sense of the Nazi threat through the
lens of antagonism towards Britain.
