Description
The office of Mayo County Librarian was hardly a crucial post. It was little more than a routine appointment, yet is escalated into a conflict that had national consequences. This book examines the anatomy of the crisis and lays bare the tensions of society in 1930s Ireland as it moved away from colonial rule.
