Fearless! Vincent Brownes Magill and Ireland in the 1980's

This book is not just the story of a magazine. It's the history of a crucial and contentious decade in Irish life. The 1980s were years of political turbulence, economic decline and bitter referendums on abortion and divorce.

Magill and its founding editor, Vincent Browne, was at the heart of all these stories. Magill was home to great writing and explosive investigations.

Drawing on extensive interviews and rich archival material, Fearless! reveals a society in upheaval and one magazine's ambition to hold those in power to account for Ireland's future.
