Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Glamour of Dublin RE ever Helen brought down the Eastern world for the sake of the captive tears she shed, before Plato grew wise or Hannibal marched away, there were tales of Troy and Tyre and Carthage here. And often there was a flutter over the water and a shake of the stepping-stones by Whit worth Bridge as a pilgrim or a bandit, or an envoy or some runaway sailor out of a ship from Sidon crossed to take the Tara road. For you will hear of Firbolgs and Fomorians, and Tuatha de Danaans, and Milesians and Phoenicians; some of them arrived not long after the Flood. And, for certain, they were smelting gold already in the forests east of the lieey about izoo b.c. Close by this Dublin, auriferous now in the gold of the spirit as who that dwells herein must know. To all then who cherish a care or a curiosity for the story of the town I offer this book ofcolours. It is pictorial, and it is as true as it may be; since truth without colour is but conceit of infallibility or the dull light of a barren mind. Enter, at once, then reader to your gallery of words.

Book Synopsis Prince of Dublin Printers by : Robert E. Ward
Download or read book Prince of Dublin Printers written by Robert E. Ward and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here for the first time are gathered together the extant letters of George Faulkner, Irish printer in eighteenth-century Dublin. These firsthand accounts give an unprecedented view of Anglo-Irish social and political events, as well as a view of an Anglo-Irish printer-publisher at work. Faulkner discusses a wide range of subjects, including theatrical events, attacks on political enemies (he himself was often the subject of political attack), and London parties with Lord Chesterfield, Tobias Smollet, and Samuel Johnson. In his interesting sketch of the Irish printer, Robert E. Ward has included excerpts from Faulkner's Dublin Journal which show the ambiguity in Irish life—violence, on the one hand, and, on the other, light-hearted entertainment. Other articles from his newspaper show Faulkner's attempts to steer a neutral course between English and Irish politics.

Download or read book Maureen O'Hara written by Aubrey Malone and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From her first appearances on the stage and screen, Maureen O'Hara (b. 1920) commanded attention with her striking beauty, radiant red hair, and impassioned portrayals of spirited heroines. Whether she was being rescued from the gallows by Charles Laughton ( The Hunchback of Notre Dame, 1939), falling in love with Walter Pidgeon against a coal-blackened sky ( How Green Was My Valley, 1941), learning to believe in miracles with Natalie Wood ( Miracle on 34th Street, 1947), or matching wits with John Wayne ( The Quiet Man, 1952), she charmed audiences with her powerful presence and easy confidence. Maureen O'Hara is the first book-length biography of the screen legend hailed as the "Queen of Technicolor." Following the star from her childhood in Dublin to the height of fame in Hollywood, film critic Aubrey Malone draws on new information from the Irish Film Institute, production notes from films, and details from historical film journals, newspapers, and fan magazines. Malone also examines the actress's friendship with frequent costar John Wayne and her relationship with director John Ford, and he addresses the hotly debated question of whether the screen siren was a feminist or antifeminist figure. Though she was an icon of cinema's golden age, O'Hara's penchant for privacy and habit of making public statements that contradicted her personal choices have made her an enigma. This breakthrough biography offers the first look at the woman behind the larger-than-life persona, sorting through the myths to present a balanced assessment of one of the greatest stars of the silver screen.

Book Synopsis Winds of Change by : Brian Gallagher
Download or read book Winds of Change written by Brian Gallagher and published by The O'Brien Press Ltd. This book was released on 2021-03-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winds of Change explores the challenges faced by a range of characters against the backdrop of Land League agitation, evictions and boycotting in 1880's Ireland. The story is told through the eyes of three Irish children: Clara Parkinson, Molly O'Hara, and Aidan Daly, whose contrasting circumstances result in differing responses to the unfolding turmoil. Despite their differing backgrounds, Clara, Aidan, and Molly become friends – a friendship that in the tinderbox climate of the Land War brings real physical dangers. Meanwhile Molly has to grapple with her divided loyalties when her father takes part in evictions with the Royal Irish Constabulary. Interspersed with time-slip elements from the present day, with student Garret Byrne exploring his family's past, the story is set during the pivotal period of late 1880 to early 1881, a time when the face of Ireland was changing forever, with dramatic – and sometimes shocking – consequences for our cast of characters.
