Description: Pictured here is a supremely attractive First Edition, First Printing of Thomas Flanagan's brilliant novel about the tumultous final years of Ireland's struggle for independence, focusing on the personal and political conflicts surrounding the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921 and the subsequent Irish Civil War. THE END OF THE HUNT, by Thomas Flanagan. First Edition, First Printing with Full Number Line. Hardcover, 1994. New York: Dutton. Octavo. Quarter-bound in Publisher's Red Cloth with Black Paper Boards; Gold Gilt Lettering Stamped to Spine; Beautiful Pastedowns and Endpapers Illustrated with Street Map of Dublin; 627 pages. Includes clipping of glowing review in The New York Times from April, 1994. A fine, like-new first printing of the third and final novel in Flanagan's historical trilogy about Ireland, with straight boards, sharp corners, square spine, and ultra-tight binding. Only a touch of edge wear and tiny smudge on text block, else perfect. Pristine interior with clean, crisp pages. NO writing. NO previous owner names. NOT a remainder. Comes in a fine dust jacket, bright and vibrant, NOT price-clipped ($24.95), now protected in archival Mylar. A tight, unblemished copy in collectible condition. Very few books succeed in registering the sudden terrible impact of historical events; Thomas Flanagan wrote three that did just that. Flanagan's historical trilogy about Ireland, which explores key moments in Irish history, began with the 1798 Rebellion in THE YEAR OF THE FRENCH and continued through THE TENANTS OF TIME. Subtly conceived, masterfully paced, with a wide and memorable cast of characters, THE END OF THE HUNT depicts the culmination of Ireland's long fight for self-determination.
