Specificatii
From the internationally bestselling author of London and Sarum --
a magnificent epic about love and war, family life and political
intrigue in Ireland over the course of seventeen centuries. Like
the novels of James Michener, The Princes of Ireland brilliantly
interweaves engrossing fiction and well-researched fact to capture
the essence of a place. Edward Rutherfurd has introduced millions
of readers to the human dramas that are the lifeblood of history.
From his first bestseller, Sarum, to the #1 bestseller London, he
has captivated audiences with gripping narratives that follow the
fortunes of several fictional families down through the ages. The
Princes of Ireland, a sweeping panorama steeped in the tragedy and
glory that is Ireland, epitomizes the power and richness of
Rutherfurd's storytelling magic. The saga begins in pre-Christian
Ireland with a clever refashioning of the legend of Cuchulainn, and
culminates in the dramatic founding of the Free Irish State in
1922. Through the interlocking stories of a wonderfully imagined
cast of characters -- monks and noblemen, soldiers and rebels,
craftswomen and writers -- Rutherfurd vividly conveys the personal
passions and shared dreams that shaped the character of the
country. He takes readers inside all the major events in Irish
history: the reign of the fierce and mighty kings of Tara; the
mission of Saint Patrick; the Viking invasion and the founding of
Dublin; the trickery of Henry II, which gave England its foothold
on the island in 1167; the plantations of the Tudors and the
savagery of Cromwell; the flight of the Wild Geese; the failed
rebellion of 1798; the Great Famine and the Easter Rebellion. With
Rutherfurd's well-crafted storytelling, readers witness the rise of
the Fenians in the late nineteenth century, the splendours of the
Irish cultural renaissance, and the bloody battles for Irish
independence, as though experiencing their momentous impact
firsthand. Tens of millions of North Americans claim Irish descent.
Generations of people have been enchanted by Irish literature, and
visitors flock to Dublin and its environs year after year. The
Princes of Ireland will appeal to all of them -- and to anyone who
relishes epic entertainment spun by a master. From the Hardcover
edition.
