Where is Ireland`s soul? This is the question that surface time & again in ” Ireland Unhinged”, a searching, sometimes scathing, often hilarious journey through a country that in the space of a few years has fallen from the dizzy heights of the `bouncy-castle` boom to the bewildering depths of the crash. ” Ireland Unhinged” is a story of reverse emigration to Cork City & then rural Waterford, from cosy US confines to the true Wild West of these last years. David Monagan`s sharp eye pinpoints the excesses & absurdities of modern Irel&. But his real search is for the enduring essence of his adopted country, as revealed in his meetings with literary legends, with witches & monks, with property developers & gnomic farmers. It is a riveting memoir of a family adapting to a strange l&, & an unflinching portrait of Ireland today. ...

At the end of the nineteenth century, Charles Stewart Parnell, MP, was the only man who both the English government & Irish radicals believed could secure Home Rule for Irel&. But when Parnell met & fell in love with Kitty O' Shea, a married woman, Parnell's life
- & Ireland's history
- would change for ever. When Parnell was named as co-respondent in Kitty's divorce & revealed as the father of three of Kitty's children it would trigger the most notorious scandal of the Victorian era. Elisabeth Kehoe's vivid biography introduces us to a woman who is unrecognisable from the home-wrecker & historical catastrophe she is commonly seen as. From this book emerges, for the first time, the real Katie O' Shea: a gifted woman bound by impossible financial & social restrictions who influences political policy with an acuity & sensitivity sorely lacking in her Irish lover. Ireland's Misfortune is a compelling account of one of history's most misunderstood women & offers a fresh insight into a defining moment in Irish history.

Cloth-backed medium size version of A New Map of Ireland originally published by William Faden around 1797 & dedicated to “ His Majesty King George the Third, The Patron & Promoter of every useful science”. Counties are in different colours, with the divisions into Ulster, Connaught, Leinster & Munster also marked. A pretty vignette of a rural scene with cupids decorates the title.

In this version the whole map is backed onto cloth in one piece but the gaps between the sections have been reproduced in the printing to preserve the style & the feeling of the original. Each individual map is presented folded in a colourful case covered with a unique design marbled paper – no two cases are identical.PLEASE NOTE: this title is also available in a smaller size reproduction.
