Mary Lou McDonald is the bookies' favourite to be Ireland's next Taoiseach. She would be the first woman to reach the office, and the first Sinn Fé in leader ever to enter government in the Republic of Ireland. But how did a quintessentially bourgeois woman end up as the leader of a political party with such a recent terrorist past? And was her change of allegiance from Fianna Fá il to Sinn Fé in ideological or opportunistic? Shane Ross's scrupulously fair and balanced biography illuminates McDonald's political awakening, her relationship with the hard men of the IRA, and the evolution and future of Sinn Fé in.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shane Ross\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1838955895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781838955892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atlantic Books (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/06\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Shane Ross","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44079278620927,"sku":"9781838955892","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dedd8c69-7079-4e95-aa9d-1cc48b4c4a86.jpg?v=1685480213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mary-lou-mcdonald-shane-ross-9781838955892","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
