内容説明

'The Irish Times Book of the Century' is an outstanding and thought-provoking survey of the twentieth century, written as it draws to its close and seen through the eyes of Ireland's leading newspaper of reference. Fintan O'Toole draws together the key events of modern Irish history, showing how international factors shaped them and recalling the manner in which they were reflected in 'The Irish Times'. The book reproduces over 100 original articles from the paper, ranging from the end of the Boer War to the conflict in Kosovo. There is also a time line highlighting principal Irish and world events. The book is handsomely designed. Over 300 photographs, illustrations and cartoons, many rare or previously unpublished, visualise key moments of the last 100 years. They highlight the growing importance of visual media throughout the century, depicting people and events from the worlds of politics and war, art, culture and social history. 'The Irish Times Book of the Century' will awaken memories in older readers and introduce younger ones to the key events and people that have shaped our world. Capture the essence of the twentieth century with this unique book as we enter the next millennium.
