Spring has sprung and the Irish world is awakening from its winter slows. On the political front, the long-awaited Cory Report has been released, with all due shaking up the halls of Northern Ireland’s power structure, with its hard facts on death, violence and collusion. And, far from home, some of the more serious charges have been dropped against the Colombia 3, accused of aiding Latin terrorists. 

On a more cultural front in this issue of The Irish American Post, we offer essays on the famous Chicago writer James T. Farrell (1904-1979), as well as more adventures of Patrick Taylor’s marvelous Dr. O’Reilly and interviews with major poet Michael Coady and broadcast writer Neal Brennan. There’s also the usual round of news, more features and plenty of other grand stories.

Forget mowing the lawn. Settle in, run off a copy of The Post if you prefer not to sit at the computer screen. Whatever way you enjoy your magazine, you’ll be right on following the world of the Irish.

Martin Hintz, publisher.
