Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Changing Winds: A Novel
Mr. Quinn, of course, treated every Englishman he met with courtesy, for he was an Irish gentleman, and he had sometimes been heard to speak affectionately of some per son Of English birth. The chief result Of this civility, conjoined with the ferocity of his political statements, was that his English friends invariably spoke of him as a typical Irishman. They looked upon him as so much comic relief to the more serious things of their own lives, and seemed constantly to expect him to perform some amusing antic, some innately Celtic act of comic folly. At such times, Mr. Quinn felt as if he could annihilate an Englishman.
