The President's Letters: An Unexpected History of Ireland; Flor MacCarthy (PB) ✓ In Stock

Paperback Condition: As New Shortlisted for APIBAS Irish-Published Book of the Year 2021A GLORIOUS HOMAGE TO ART OF THE LETTER AND AN ESSENTIAL HISTORY OF THE IRISH STATEWith over 400 letters, memos, cards, telegrams, drawings, notes and photographs, The Presidents’ Letters reveals a personal and unexpected story of Ireland since the inauguration of our first president, Douglas Hyde.Most of these have never been published before and a handful have never been seen by the public. They are letters of congratulations, of resignation, of sympathy. A handwritten note from a president to a queen, a message sent to the moon, a fond farewell from a poet. There are letters of joy and loss, begging letters and threatening ones, sent from palaces, parliaments and prisons, from war zones, refugee camps and homeless shelters. Meticulously researched and handpicked for this unique book, these correspondences bring to life our presidents, Áras an Uachtaráin and all those who have passed through its doors.The Presidents’ Letters explores how each of our presidents defined their eras and how they strengthened the relationship between Ireland and all who identify as Irish.The book is divided into thematic sections, rather than separate chapters on the individual presidencies and featuring contributions in the form of one-page chapter introductions to contextualise the correspondence.Contributors include: David McCullagh, Rory Montgomery Martina Devlin, Catriona Crowe, Samantha Barry, Joseph O'Connor, Harry McGee, Lise Hand, Justine McCarthy, Paul Rouse, Terri Kearney.

A History of Ireland in Ten Body Parts by Dr Ian Miller (Hardback) ✓ In Stock

Skulls, heads, hands, height, legs, sex organs, blood, brains, stomachs, ears and corpses \u2013 discover Irish history through the prism of the body. \r\n\r\nFrom the brutal beheading of the 25-year-old, red-headed Clonycavan Man some 2,000 years ago, and the rich vein of information that has been preserved in his \u2018bog body\u2019, to the ancient skulls stolen from islands off Ireland\u2019s west coast believed to be those of giants \u2013 here medical historian Dr Ian Miller brings readers on a uniquely entertaining journey through Irish history. Encounter the famous scribes, including St Patrick, who preserved our knowledge of ancient Ireland by hand. Discover the fears of excessive tea drinking that were once such a great cause for concern on this isle. Meet the doctors who revolutionised Irish medicine in the 19th century \u2013 along with the gruesome bodysnatching that accompanied it. \r\n\r\nHere, fact and folklore intertwine to take you on a fascinating journey through Irish history as you\u2019ve never experienced it before.
