More DescriptionTHIS CLASSIC WORK IS REFORMATTED AND CAREFULLY REPRODUCED. It was not reproduced in a hurry from an old photocopy. Some reviews that may appear on Amazon reflect other editions of this book. To avoid buying a poor quality classic, always inspect its sample pages once they are available on Amazon.com. In case they do not appear initially, wait for a up to three days and they will. If they are still unavailable, consider buying a different book that offers a preview.Another sign to look for is "full justification" of lines: all the lines in a paragraph must have the same length, except for the last one, like the text columns in a newspaper. If they have a "rugged" look, the printing is bellow par. However, some people prefer the rugged look. Just make sure you know what you are buying. Finally, words at the end of sentences are rarely hyphened in this version. It is nearly hyphenation free.Irish author James Stephens writes his account of the 1916 Easter uprising and how Dubliners came to view it.When Stephens walks out of his home, he finds out that Sinn Fein have taken over parts of Dublin. First, he observes the people react with disbelief and anger. But gradually they change as national pride sinks in their souls and they begin to hope for independence.Besides this testimonial book, with humor and intelligence, Irish author James Stephens (1882-1950) retold folk stories and created new myths on old traditions. He is considered a member of the "Celtic Revival" movement. Stephens stood at four feet and ten inches height but he was very athletic and to this day, his spirit soars with the legends he bequeathed us.
