Zustand: Very Good. : En la víspera del día de San Patricio de 1882, la comunidad irlandesa de Christchurch se prepara para dar la bienvenida al mejor artista irlandés de la época: el 'Dancing Man'. Ese mismo día, el inspector de policía O'Rorke es invitado a una elegante cena. A medida que él y la cautivadora Sra. Martin se sienten atraídos el uno por el otro, deben aceptar la desaprobación de la sociedad y la aparición de secretos del pasado que amenazan no solo con arruinar su reputación y arruinar su carrera, sino también con poner en peligro sus vidas. 'The Dancing Man' sigue la carrera del inspector O'Rorke, y es intrincado en la trama, cambiando en tiempo y lugar entre Christchurch en 1882, Ciudad del Cabo en 1870, la Guerra de Crimea, la Guerra Civil estadounidense y el Levantamiento Feniano irlandés. Es una historia sobre la lealtad y el amor, la libertad sexual y la futilidad de intentar evadir la implacable resaca de los acontecimientos pasados.

Softcover. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket As Issued. First Edition. No signatures.; 369, [3 (blank)] pages. Illustrated card covers. Page dimensions: 229 x 149mm. A biography of James Edward Fitzgerald (1818-1896). "This is the first biography of one of the most mercurial men in nineteenth-century New Zealand. A large and handsome Irish aristocrat, James Edward FitzGerald was wit, essayist and poet, artist, journalist, civil servant, politician, orator, singer and inspirational lecturer. First editor of the Lyttelton Times, Canterbury's first Superintendent, founder of The Press, and New Zealand's first Comptroller-General of Finance, he also became arguably this country's first Prime Minister, in 1854. His great speeches on Maori political rights rank among the greatest parliamentary orations of our history. The story of his marriage to Fanny Erskine Draper (herself a woman of rare accomplishment) is a love story in its own right. This book also offers new insights into the Anglo-Irish influence on early Canterbury, and the bruising conflict between the utopian founding ideals of FitzGerald and John Robert Godley and the dynamic 'Yankeeism' of William Moorhouse and the 'progressive' who, against FitzGerald's often frenetic opposition, built the Lyttelton rail tunnel - the greatest engineering feat achieved in nineteenth-century New Zealand."
