'Paul Bew has given us a masterly exposition of Churchill's lifelong engagement with Irish affairs.'Paul Addison, author of Churchill: The Unexpected Hero'An engaging, appreciative, and politically astute study... a book that proves, if needed, that Churchills legacy still offers both an inspiration and a reproach for contemporary politicians, as they sink ever deeper into the mire of cynicism, triviality, sound-bites, and tweets.'David Fitzpatrick, Professor of Modern History, Trinity College Dublin, "[A] brilliant study Churchill and Ireland is an elegant, objective, and absorbing book. It is essential reading."--A Blog on Winston Churchill "A necessary and desirable addition to collections on Irish history, Winston Churchill, and the British Empire Highly recommended."--CHOICE "This is a a tremendous contribution to the understanding of a formative period of Churchill's life.

Synopsis
Winston Churchill spent his early childhood in Ireland, had close Irish relatives, and was himself much involved in Irish political issues for a large part of his career. He took Ireland very seriously - and not only because of its significance in the Anglo-American relationship. Churchill, in fact, probably took Ireland more seriously than Ireland took Churchill. Yet, in the fifty years since Churchill's death, there has not been a single major book on his relationship to Ireland. It is the most neglected part of his legacy on both sides of the Irish Sea. Distinguished historian of Ireland Paul Bew now at long last puts this right. Churchill and Ireland tells the full story of Churchill's lifelong engagement with Ireland and the Irish, from his early years as a child in Dublin, through his central role in the Home Rule crisis of 1912-14 and in the war leading up to the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1922, to his bitter disappointment at Irish neutrality in the Second World War and gradual rapprochement with his old enemy Eamon de Valera towards the end of his life. As this long overdue book reminds us, Churchill learnt his earliest rudimentary political lessons in Ireland. It was the first piece in the Churchill jigsaw and, in some respects, the last., The full story of Winston Churchill's lifelong engagement with Ireland and the Irish, now told for the first time. A long overdue book which at last addresses the most neglected part of Churchill's legacy on both sides of the Irish Sea., Winston Churchill spent his early childhood in Ireland, had close Irish relatives, and was himself much involved in Irish political issues for a large part of his career.
