Julie,

this book will be well received in Québec. We need more good book in French on Northern Ireland. That is a problem here went a teach on Northern Ireland to find good material in French.

Mackers Julie sends her thanks for carrying her piece and I was grateful to receive a copy of the book itself which I will pass on to my kids.

Nuala,

I only met him in passing but he seemed a fine guy. His book on Bobby was the very last book I bought my mother before she died. I thought the book wee worth the reading. I certainly did not find it, as some suggested, the SF approved account. I actually found it subversive of the SF account although that was not its purpose. It was crafted to create a Bobby that added immensely to our understanding of him. I always meant to review it. There were some points I disagreed with, particularly about the demands that were prioritised during the protest. But this is merely a matter of interpretation and takes nothing away from the quality of the work.

Mackers,
I should have added. Denis O Hearn was probably the most genuine socalist I ever met, everything he wrote and lectured on was informed by his dedication to the peoples struggle. If ever there was anyone who could pay a fitting tribute to Bobby and his comrades it was him.

Yes Julie thanks,
Denis taught me when I was at Queens quite a while ago and we stayed friends.
He is truly an inspirational person and probably one of the most genuine and grounded people I have ever met.

Julie, thank you for such a great piece. Bobby wa...

Julie,

thank you for such a great piece. Bobby was an inspiration to more than just Irish people and you have made that so clear in your piece.

Long after the name Thatcher,Adams has faded into obscurity Bobby Sands will still be spoken of, for like true legends the world over,the people love a braveheart.and Bobby and his comrades like Marian Price
/Mc Glinshey enshrine exactly the meaning of the spirit of freedom.
If the peoples of Europe enjoyed Denis,s biography on Bobby, well they are going to be blown away by IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF ANNE....
