Description:

"A narrative history of the use of Irish labour in Britain during the Second World War. Written by Professor A.V. Judges this is a full account of the methods used to recruit Irish labour, the travel and accommodation arrangements and what awaited the workers in Britain. The appendices contain figures for the number of workers recruited throughout the war etc. This class provides a good overview of the programme from the point of view of British officialdom – although Professor Judges tries to be even handed in his approach throughout.
