註釋Though Ireland was officially neutral and the exact numbers are controversial, tens of thousands of Irish volunteered to join the British forces in World War II. In an Irish-born book originating in the oral history Volunteers Project at U. College Cork, ten essays provide insights on their contributions, the Anglo-Irish security liaison, domestic policies in Ireland north and south, post-war consequences of Irish involvement in the Allied cause (e.g. the permanent migration of Irish war industry workers to Britain), and historians' assessment of Ireland's wartime status.
