Ireland - A History by Robert Kee
Robert Kee's classic bestseller remains an essential survey of the country and its people; an introduction to the fascinating history that has made modern Ireland, and a thought -provoking examination of how past facts have bred present myths.
His achievment is to explain, lucidly & vividly, the bloodlines of the conflict.. Kee makes jumping centuries seem easy and, with flashes of gallows humour, exhilarating * Thomas PAKENHAM *
Mr Kee writes with a combination of verve, clarity and insight * S. TEL. *
I have seldom, if ever, read anything so superbyly constructed...So evocative, so acute, so replete with perception, that it will inspire the reader to want to know more... * Brian Walden *
