Almost nothing of any value has been written about the Catholic church during the First World War, and yet as the church of the great majority of Irish people it occupied a central position at a time of considerable social and political turmoil.

It reassesses some of the leading ecclesiastical figures of the time, such as Cardinal Logue, Archbishop Walsh and Bishop O'Dwyer of Limerick, and discusses the political interest of belligerent foreign powers in Ireland and its church.
