Judging Lemass by Tom Garvin
An almost mythical narrative has grown up around Sean Lemass and his career as Taoiseach from 1959 to 1966. He was responsible for not one, but two economic revolutions in Ireland during his time in the Department of Industry and Commerce. This book introduces the many facets of Lemass.
