Some of the works are illustrated. ***'This unique anthology of contemporary Irish writing--the bulk of it here published for the first time--is representative of the work of nine members of CLE/The Irish Book Publishers' Association which, since its formal inception in 1970, has already made substantial progress in revitalising the industry as a vehicle worthy of Ireland's fertile literary talent. (Quote taken from the Foreword) ***An unusual publication, consisting of nine separate publisher's works bound together in one volume as a sample of their work. Uncommon, especially in the UK. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. William Bolger (Cover design) (illustrator).
