Synopsis

Griffith, Kenneth/ O'Grady, Timothy E. Curious Journey. An Oral History of Ireland's Unfiinished Revolution. London and others, Hutchinson, 1982. 19.2cm x 12.5cm. xxxvii, 376 (1) pages. Original illustrated softcover. Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Name of preowner on endpaper. The curious journey of the subjects of this book passes through the recent history of Ireland. Viewing events as avowed Republicans- a perspective seldom presented in the media- the authors have interviewed nine distinguished Irish veterans who in their youth lived through the Gaelic renaissance, the Easter Rising, the brutal guerilla war against the British and the horrors of the subsequent civil war. The subjects who relive their dramatic past in these pages- Tom Barry, Maire Comerford, Sean Harling, Sean Kavanagh, David Neligan, John L. O'Sullivan, Joseph Sweeney, Brighid Lyons Thornton and Martin Walton- come from all parts of Ireland and most social classes. Several later achieved eminence in Irish life.
