- Seán MacBride was a French-born Irish patriot, lawyer, and international politician. He was the son of two Irish nationalists, Maud Gonne and her husband Major John MacBride, who had fought in the Boer War with the Boers. His parents separated shortly after his birth and fought a bitter custody battle over him. His father was executed by the British Army after the failed 1916 Easter Rising. Sean fought in the Irish war of independence and in the civil war that followed. He served as chief-of-staff of the Irish Republican Army for a time. He subsequently was the leader of the republican-socialist Clann na Poblachta party, and after independence became the Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs. After leaving politics, he was a founder member of Amnesty International and later was awarded the 1974 Nobel Peace Prize and the 1975-76 Lenin Peace Prize.

That Day's Struggle: A Memoir 1904 - 1951 de Sean MacBride
Important that this has been published as MacBride's memoirs had not been widely viewed in the past. The major failure of the book is that the memoirs end in 1951 and do not cover the period of the 2nd Inter-Party Government or his later life. As the 2nd Inter-Party Government fell after the Clann refused to support the anti-terrorist crackdown in 1957 it would have been interesting to seek MacBride's record of this time. His claims of a close working relationship with FG ministers is supportive of Noel Browne's ascerbic biography: Against the Tide. The book is vacuous in relation to Browne's dismissal and also the 1948 General Election where MacBride's posthumous claim that he did not predict an overall majority for the Clann do not stand up to scrutiny given his statements during the campaign. His negative view of Fianna Fáil does shine through the book.… (mais)
