A True Companion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Having read both Angela's Ashes and 'Tis, this book provides yet a greater sense of the Ireland of the McCourt era. The pictures are authentic and show the true Ireland of old. I would recommend this to anyone who is fascinated with Frank McCourt's writings - it will all become quite real.
A masterful visualization of Frank Mc Courts masterpiece.

The Limerick of Angela's Ashes is beautifully, if not sadly portrayed in this collection of photographs and commentary on life in Ireland in the 30's and 40's. This is truly a "must have" for anyone with an interest in the heritage of the Irish people in the twentieth century. The succinct captioning is beautiful and moving. The photography, printed in sepia tones, is marvelous. You won't be able to put it down.
