Dublin Made Me

These two classic memoirs beautifully chronicle C.S. Andrews' life in Dublin as a participant-and one of the founding fathers-in the formation of the State, and are as relevant to a new generation as they were when first published twenty years ago. The first book, Dublin Made Me (1979), is a gem. Andrews gives us a vivid description of growing up in Dublin's north inner city in the first decade of the 20th century. He captures the sights, sounds, and smells of the city, its beauty and ugliness, its charm and prejudice.
