Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Pollock, John Hackett (An Philibín) (1887-1964), writer and doctor, was born in Dublin, son of Hugh Pollock, a protestant barrister who later became registrar of the land commission, and Mary Pollock (née Donnelly), a catholic. He was educated at the Catholic University School, Leeson St., and the Catholic University Medical School, Cecilia St. Appointed assistant pathologist to the Richmond hospital, during the 1916 Easter rising he courageously went through the city streets wearing a Red Cross armlet to assist the wounded. Pollock published prolifically as a poet, critic, playwright, and novelist, producing nineteen volumes, all with Irish publishing houses. He was a founding member (1928) of the Dublin Gate Theatre Studio, which staged his one-act play Tristram and Iseult (previously published as a dramatic poem in 1924). Pollock indulged to the full his loose, imaginative approach to historical material in Mount Kestrel (1945), which combines the 1916 Kerry landing of Roger Casement (qv) with the fate of the Spanish Armada through the device of a mentally unstable first-person narrator who confuses events. He died in the Richmond hospital on 11 December 1964, and was buried in Dean's Grange cemetery. Strangely the last paragraph of this book makes reference to that cemetery. First edition first printing hardcover in green boards with quarter leather with gilt lettering to spine. Plenty of edge wear particularly on spine ends and all corners bumped. Endpapers foxed. A Christmas 1945 gift inscription on the ffep. Otherwise clean and bright. No other pen marks or inscriptions. Not ex-lib. Binding strong. Please examine all seller photos.…
