Behind the bailout: The rise, fall and legacy of Brian Cowen He was the man who presided over one of the country's most turbulent events, when Ireland's Celtic Tiger came crashing down. Now, a new book chronicling the political life of Brian Cowen has hit the shelves. Cowen's time as taoiseach was defined by the banking crash, the recession and the financial crisis that transformed the country. So, what led to the Offaly man's political rise? What light does this book shed on his time in Leinster house? And how will history remember the man who handled the bailout? On today's Indo Daily, Tessa Fleming is joined by the Irish Independent's Ireland editor, Fionnán Sheahan, to discuss Gary Murphy's new book, Brian Cowen: Anatomy of a Taoiseach, and the crisis that defined his tenure.
