Book Synopsis A History of County Galway by : Peadar O'Dowd
Download or read book A History of County Galway written by Peadar O'Dowd and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2004-10-05 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peadar O'Dowd's A History of County Galway is an enjoyable, accessible and informative study of Galway's history. A comprehensive book that begins with Galway's geological formation, O'Dowd's study of Ireland's second largest county progresses up to the present day and is the ideal book for anyone interested in the county of the Tribesmen. Galway is the largest county in the province of Connacht, both in area and population. It is divided in two by the great expanse of Lough Corrib, the largest lake in the Republic of Ireland. To the west lies one of the country's most scenic areas, the mountains of Connemara, while to the east, its fertile plains run gently towards the Shannon basin. Its capital, Galway City, stands on the banks of the River Corrib, which flows into Galway Bay. East Galway is particularly rich in ecclesiastical and monastic ruins, while Galway City has been an important port and trading centre since medieval times, conducting a vigorous trade with places as far away as Italy, Spain and France. In modern times the county has been a focus of industrial and tourist expansion and contains one of the largest Gaeltachts or Irish-speaking areas in the country. Peadar O'Dowd's fascinating history of the area traces its political, administrative, social and economic developments over the centuries. He pays particular attention in the modern period to the importance of its educational and cultural infrastructures, as well as its changing life styles in the twenty-first century. A well-known local author and historian, O'Dowd has deep knowledge of and abiding affection for Galway and its people that is abundantly clear in this authoritative yet accessible study of his native county.

Book excerpt: Artie Cohen is a good-looking New York City cop with a taste for women and jazz and no intention of looking back to the past he left behind twenty-five years earlier in Moscow. In Red Hot Blues, he is faced with a case that leaves him no choice but to confront that past. When a former KGB general is shot dead on live TV, Artie is compelled to take the case; the general was a friend of his father's. Artie doesn't have to go far until he is led into the heart of the Brighton Beach mafia, where the most lethal weapon on the street is rumored to be an elusive substance known as Red Mercury - an atomic weapon that has the terrifying advantage of being pocket-sized. Artie stumbles upon a radioactive trail of atomic smuggling that leads all the way back to Moscow. For Artie to solve this case, he must reclaim his past and return to the home he left behind. It is in Moscow that he finds love, tragedy, and the truth.

Still reeling from a violent family tragedy, Taylor is busy drowning his grief in Jameson and uppers, as usual, when a high-profile officer in the local Garda is murdered. After another Guard is found dead, and then another, Taylor’s old colleagues from the force implore him to take on the case.
