Time in Armagh (Gallery books) door John Montague

A very good look into the Ireland's ecclesiastical war through the eyes a child (or even many merge children) we can see the struggle for life, death, survival and especially love in the most unexpected places. Not a favorite, but I did find it gripping and would not mind reading more of his works.
