RTÉ has published a compelling up close and personal account of Election 2011, which was launched by An Taoiseach Enda Kenny at the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin yesterday.

The book includes a series of articles on the fall of the government, the rise of new national leaders, the debates and the campaign on the ground, on the airwaves and online. Contributions come from RTÉ's skilled political staff including The Week in Politics presenter, Sean O'Rourke, Bryan Dobson and David Davin Power. The book also includes specially commissioned articles from well-known writers. Olivia O'Leary reports on the saddest election she's ever covered while veteran former RTÉ journalist Sean Duignan recounts the elections he shared with the late Gerald Barry.
There is also a constituency-by-constituency guide which sees results analysed in detail by expert pollster Sean Donnelly.
