The Fields Of Athenry
Author: James Charles Roy
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 9780813340661
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In The Fields of Athenry, James Charles Roy leads us through the Irish past and present by way of his own personal struggles and misadventures in renovating Moyode Castle, an old tower house that he purchased more than thirty years ago. While he pieces together its four-hundred-year-old past, the castle becomes a powerful symbol for Roy – it is battered by waves of history, yet timeless and resilient. Roy's personal struggles with the land and its people open for him a wide-ranging historical conversation on Ireland today and our sense of history more broadly. How do we reconcile the historical nostalgia attached to Ireland with the boom times that the "Celtic Tiger" enjoys today? With this question in mind, Roy searches for the answer of what attracts us – or, perhaps more aptly, him – to the rubble of a castle from Irish days long past.

Life in Ireland
Author: Conor W. O'Brien
Publisher: Merrion Press
ISBN: 1785373862
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
This is the story of life in Ireland – a story half a billion years in the making. With its castles, crannogs and passage tombs, Ireland is a land where history looms large, but the saga of life on this island dates back millions of years before the first people set foot here. In Life in Ireland, Conor O’Brien guides the reader on a journey around the island to explore the history of natural life here, from the Jurassic Coast of Antrim to the great Ice Age bone-beds of Cork. Along the way, we’ll meet some of the astonishing creatures to have called Ireland home through the ages: shelled monsters; huge marine lizards; armoured dinosaurs; giant deer; mighty mammoths. Vital strands in the story of life on Earth have left their mark here, including some of the first creatures to crawl onto land or take to the wing. This epic journey will take us from the first fossils to the present day, to see how our wildlife has adapted to the human age and explore what the future might hold for life in Ireland.

Book Description
'Irish Shores: A Journey Round the Rim of Ireland' tells the story of a hitchhike around the West of Ireland's coastline. It conjures up a picture of a pre-Celtic Tiger Ireland, reminding us that that was not really very long ago. This can act as a companion publication to Paul Clement's recent travel book, 'Wandering Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way', as it covers virtually the same route but a quarter of a century later - so making a wonderful snap-shot of Ireland before and after the Tiger!
