"Ireland Standing Firm is a frank and pungent account of Robert Brennan's time as Irish Minister in Washington immediately before and during the second World War. Brennan gives a fascinating account of his efforts in defending Irish neutrality and his meetings with leading American officials and politicians, including Franklin D. Roosevelt." "In the second memoir, Eamon de Valera, Brennan describes his close association with Eamon de Valera from their first meeting in prison in 1917 until de Valera's retirement as Taoiseach in 1959." These two entertaining memoirs were originally written for publication in the Irish Press newspaper in the 1950s.

Ireland Standing Firm and Eamon de Valera: A Memoir
A cursory look at Irish history from the tribes of the early first millenium up through the Troubles to the year 2000. Having known very little about Irish history, this was a good overview but I have to stress that it is very, very broad. With such a large span of time to cover in just over 300 pages, you're bound to miss out on a lot of important details. The fact that the portion of the book dedicated to the Irish Civil War pot-independence was only given about 8 pages, however, seemed a bit lacking.
If you've read Wikipedia articles on Irish history, then find a book that delves deeper into specific aspects of Irish history in which you're interested.
