5.0 out of 5 stars an irish history lover's choice of history and romance, 18 Jun 1999
By A Customer
AS lover of anything Irish, and a recent visitor to Northern Ireland, I couldn't help but find myself back there again, seeing it thru the eyes of the characters of this book. The author has done a wonderful job of making the recent & far past history of this very historical part of the world come alive, and combining it with a very touching love story. thanks for the good read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtakingly wonderful!, 28 Mar 1999
By A Customer
After reading IRISH LADY in one sitting, I sat down and read it again. This beautifully crafted work is much too special to be thought of as simply another romance novel. This story of Meghann, who escapes from her Belfast past to become a successful London attorney, and Michael, a former IRA soldier is both intense and ethereal. Both Meghann and Michael must come to terms with the past while securing their future together. Through the wisdom of Nuala O'Donnell, a 16th c. ancestor, Meghann reconciles herself to her heritage, her convictions, and her heart.

If you are unfamiliar with Irish nationalism, one read of this book will well acquaint you with it. You'll finally understand what Bono was saying when U2 recorded "Sunday, Bloody Sunday". Though Ms. Baker does take liberties with the history of the 16th c. (which she admits in her notes), her insight into modern Irish nationalist politics is right on target.

IRISH LADY is a truly wonderful book with realistic and vivid characters, a smart plot, and crisp writing. This is a keeper.
