From Historic Landmarks to the Lecture Hall – Sharing Ireland’s History Through Research, Education and Public Engagement
An Alliance between Archbishop Daniel Mannix and Eamon de Valera
This book is an examination and evaluation from a historical perspective of the alliance that was established and forged between the former Taoiseach and President of Ireland, Eamon de Valera, and the former President of Maynooth and Archbishop of Melbourne, Australia, Dr Daniel Mannix. The book explores how their bond aided Ireland’s push for independence and why Mannix, once revered, became an isolated figure after 1925.
