Synopsis

In boom and in bust, Ireland has been led by Fianna Fáil. Showtime gets behind the party's remarkable dominance of the political landscape and leading political writer Pat Leahy, tells the gripping story of how it won, kept and has used power since the mid-1990s. Showtime is politics in the raw: the exciting, enlightening and sometimes disturbing story of a remarkable era that changed the face of modern Ireland.

Review:

Compelling ... at times, it is truly like a thriller * Irish Times * Studded with fascinating anecdotes ... immensely wise in its analysis and insight * Sunday Times * Very impressive and told me a lot that I didn't know * Vincent Browne, TV3 * Vigorous, breathless .... a book that makes one laugh and weep * Irish Independent * Revealing ... astonishing ... thrilling * Sunday Tribune * I know where Pat Leahy got the information for his book. Nonsense. Fellas' ego trips * Bertie Ahern, FF TD *
