  Adored and reviled in equal measure, Charles J. Haughey has been one of the most significant political leaders in Ireland in the late twentieth century. In his final speech in the Irish Dail Haughey claimed, like Othello, to 'have done the state some service'. The aim of this biography is to present a balanced picture of a fallen idol and flawed genius.
