Publisher's Synopsis
"The Years of the Shadow," by Katharine Tynan, gives the recent literary and political gossip of North Ireland with the inimitable brilliance of a clever Irish woman. The chapters having to do with the Rebellion are especially noteworthy.
--The Dial, Vol. 67
Happily for the reader there will be no question as to the category of Miss Katharine Tynan's latest book, "The Years of the Shadow" -- especially for those readers familiar with her "Twenty-five Years" and "The Middle Years." For here, as in her previous volumes of reminiscence, we have the record of an alert and sympathetic mind moving among highly interesting people, and by no means reluctant to give forth her impression of them.
--The Bookman, Vol. 50
