Description "MacDonogh is without doubt the most adventurous and determined of the Irish publishers . . . This is an important book." Phoenix
"An intelligent, informative account of a life spent fighting for freedom of speech, a right which is still not adequately safeguarded." Irish World
Author Steve MacDonogh, editorial director of Brandon, is the author of seven previous books, including the only book about publishing in Ireland, Open Book: One Publisher’s War.
"Far and away the best of the many books written about the area. A visitor who travels to Dingle without it is seriously deprived. The book is lovingly rich in information and is not merely an account of what you see when you pass a particular place. Seamed and textured, it recounts history, legend and lore. The book is excellent on places that are visited by thousands of visitors each year. Its merit, though, lies in the way it treats less popular areas with equal depth and care." Examiner
