Details: Dead accurate"" - Irish Press. Only a Dubliner could have written this. Pintmanship is defined, ""Offeecials"" are abused, the four-legged fellas lamented. Oul' wans flit through its pages and the rich and varied cast includes the Paycock, the ball-man, Bang-Bang, the oul' bird, the long fellow and the Abbey Street public speaker. The talk is pure Dublin idiom, lacking only the vibrant kiss of life of the Dublin adenoid, the finest and most plaintive speaking instrument ever devised.' ""The whole life of the Dublin of the 40s and 50s. A most delightful book.the photographs are splendid"" - Benedict Kiely, Irish Times.
