Recensioner i media

In this sweeping new study, James Cooper shows how American policy towards Ireland from Presidents Kennedy to Obama has played a central role in both U.S. domestic and foreign policy for over a half century. Well-written and based on exhaustive multiarchival research, Cooper is the first to so thoroughly cover the subject. What emerges is a book that is essential reading for all students of the presidency and U.S.-Irish relations.
