What this book is about
Leon Uris's sweeping historical epic traces three generations of Irish history through three families: the Catholic Larkins, the Protestant MacLeods, and the Anglo-Irish Hubbles — whose fates intertwine through the land struggles, famine, religious conflict, and ultimately the Easter Rising of 1916. With the same unflinching scope he brought to Exodus and Mila 18, Uris depicts British rule of Ireland, sectarian violence, and the human cost of a conflict that defined a nation.
