Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Fields of Athenry , James Charles Roy leads us through the Irish past and present with the central theme of his own personal experience with the renovation of a run-down castle -- really a crumbled tower -- that he purchased more than thirty years ago. Moyode Castle, located near the County Galway market town of Athenry, was built in the sixteenth century by the Dolphins, an Irish-speaking family directly descended from French-speaking Norman adventurers who had invaded Ireland four centuries earlier. This old tower house and the rich agricultural lands it guards has witnessed every strand of Irish history, from the heroic exploits of Celtic warriors long celebrated by Yeats and Lady Gregory, through the Easter Rising of 1916 when IRA insurgents used the building as a lookout. It stands today as a powerful, timeless symbol of the tumultuous ebb and flow of fortune, both good and bad, that characterizes Irish history. Roy weaves his personal story of the purchase and renovation of Moyode into a wide ranging historical conversation, leading us to a topic of real interest to Ireland today and our sense of history more broadly: the historical nostalgia we attach to Ireland and the fact that our romantic image flies directly in the face of development and boom times in the "Celtic Tiger" of the twenty-first century. Few know, for example, that today Ireland produces and ships more software abroad than any other country in the world with the exception of the United States, though we all know the story of Angela's Ashes. With this theme in mind, Roy leads us to question what attracts us -- or perhaps more aptly him -- to the rubble of a castle from Irish days long past.
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 Synopsis Douglas County by : Castle Rock Writers
Download or read book Douglas County written by Castle Rock Writers and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Castle Rock Writers bring readers a collection of vintage images and sketches of Douglas County from approximately 1861 to 1950, covering the settling of towns such as Parker and Sedalia and rural areas like Cherry Valley and Daniel's Park. Early homesteaders, adventurers, and prospectors journeyed west following the 900-plus miles along the Cherokee Trail, seeking the wealth of gold or needing the curative air of Colorado. On the long and arduous trip, travelers stopped at the Twenty Mile House in Parker or the Pretty Woman Ranch on the First Territorial Road. They needed to clean off the dust and dirt and enjoy a nourishing meal before the final push to Denver and beyond. Some simply stayed. They homesteaded ranches, staked out mines, and built small towns in the rolling plains, mesas, forested hills, and mountains that make up the 843 square miles of Douglas County. In the first half of the 20th century, the region grew into cohesive communities, where families thrived through ingenuity and hard work. Neighbors supported neighbors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The little book about whiskey - “Ireland’s Whiskey Guide” is a comprehensive travel and whiskey guide. Ireland’s Whiskey Guide is a new guide to the Whiskey Distilleries of Ireland. This Whiskey Book is a part travel guide, and part historical insight. This comprehensive Travel and Whiskey guide provides lively facts and anecdotes about the history of Irish Whiskey for beginners, as well as some quirky facts about the island of Ireland – as seen through the eyes of the author. Through their journey von Kate and Shem the driver in the Emerald Isle she goes to the local roots of this “whiskey rebirthing” and speaks with many locals that have lived through more difficult times... All the exciting and comedic details of her journey you can read about later. Irish whiskey used to be the most popular whiskey in the world, although the long decline since the late 19th century has severely damaged the industry. It is so huge that even in Ireland, which had more than 30 wineries in the 1890s a century later, this number is only three. Irish whiskey has become popular since the end of the 20th century and has been the fastest-growing whiskey in the world every year since 1990. As the export volume grows at a rate of more than 15% per year, the existing wineries have been expanded and some of them have been built. As of June 2019, there are 25 wineries in operation in Ireland, and another 24 are planned or under development. However, the service life of many of these whiskies is not sufficient to make locally produced whiskies age to the point where they can be sold. There are three parts to the book. The history of Irish whiskey while exciting has been somewhat forgotten. due to this, the first part of the book will give brief summaries of Irish whiskeys and their ups and downs“ and why Irish Whiskey is now moving into a glorious rebirthing age – with distilleries springing up all over the island of Ireland. The second part describes the processes in how whiskey is and more so on how Irish whiskey differs from all the other types of whisky, especially Jack Daniels whiskey. Through the second part, the underlying motive of “all good things take time” especially resonating with the survival of the Irish Whiskey trade. The third part has a travel focus and is for the adventure seeker in us all who have dreamed of visiting the vast green landscapes of Ireland and for those who wish to see these historical places in person. Even if the reader comes from Ireland and just has an interest in their local history, this guide can provide an 'off the beaten track' type of guidance. Initially is the book published in English.
