A vital history from the award-winning Financial Times journalist Philip Stephens about the dramatic century from the Anglo-Irish Treaty and its aftermath. Divided Isles tells the story from both sides of the Irish Sea.
Breaking through layers of bitterness and prejudice, it explores the emotional intimacy and hostility of a relationship defined by close family ties and conflicting national identities.
It's a story written by great political leaders - David Lloyd George, Michael Collins, Winston Churchill, and Eamon de Valera - as well as by the millions of Irish immigrants who crossed from Ireland to Britain to start new lives.
Today, demography, Brexit, and political reasoning have brought the possibility of Irish unity to the forefront. Based on decades of personal contacts and interviews with key political figures across Britain and Europe, Stephens maps this complex relationship and questions how Ireland can use its history to inform its future instead of keeping it in the past.
