THE SINN FEIN REBELLION AS I SAW IT
BY MRS. HAMILTON NORWAY (WIFE OF THE SECRETARY FOR THE POST OFFICE IN IRELAND)
With Illustrations, and Reproduction of the Irish Republican Stamp on Cover
LONDON SMITH, ELDER & CO., 15 WATERLOO PLACE 1916
For these letters I claim no literary merit: they were written during a period of extraordinary strain for family perusal only, and are a faithful record hour by hour of the Sinn Fein rebellion as I saw it. The wide interest the letters excited in the family circle and the little that seems to be known of a period of such intense interest is my reason for offering them to a wider public.
