A paperback first edition, FNT , 1963 , of the autobiography of the youth and early years of Seán T Ó Ceallaigh, co written with Prionsias Ó Conluain.
Seán T, as he was universally known, had a fascinating and long life at the centre of Irish politics , eventually becoming the second president of the state, after a long career at cabinet, where he held almost every senior position apart from Taoiseach . This book details the early period of his life in Dublin, his time as a writer, as a librarian, a member of the IRB, his activities in 1916 , imprisonment in Reading jail, membership of various Irish language and cultural organisations, and knowing almost everyone - he was particularly well connected amongst the revolutionary elite in the period up to the Rising.
Is as Gaeilge in iomlán atá an leabhar - the book is entirely in Irish.
Condition, - very good, some slanting and edgewear to the spine, previous owners name to the ffep. Not ex library, no other stamps, marks or damage.
