James Hawes published six novels before turning his storytelling gifts to nonfiction. His previous two shortest histories, The Shortest History of Germany and The Shortest History of England, have sold more than half a million copies around the world. Hawes has known Ireland since the 1970s, lectured for two years at St. Patrick's College, Maynooth (where the IRA tried to recruit him), and is married to an Irishwoman.
