Tunisia is the other face of the Mediterranean, of that same sea that unites, while dividing, two big continents. It is not only a country of dream vacations, where the tourist finds golden beaches & crystalline water: it is a land dotted with historic, artistic, & human riches that are stratified in the cities, villages, & countryside, & in its folklore & customs. In addition to the mysterious dunes of its desert, besides the coral of its coasts, the splendid past & promising future of a small nation in the heart of the Maghreb reveals itself to wondering eyes. ...

How many of us ever take the time to think about the history of Ireland's sporting sites? This book urges us to do just that. From national stadia to local pitches, from exclusive golf courses to derelict sites of former sporting glory, it explores the spaces where ordinary people have congregated & community identities have been formed; why sporting sites are located in particular places & how they have changed over time; what kinds of men & women have gathered together in these venues to compete, spectate or place a bet. Tracing the history of sport in modern Irel&, the authors explain the impact of railways, the military, landed wealth, local tradesmen & national politics on the development of the built sporting landscape. The story of Ireland's sporting heritage is told through the history of sites ranging from the familiar to the less well known; from the fishing estate in Ballynahinch, County Galway, developed by the record-breaking cricketer Ranji, or the racecourse at Down Royal where a winning horse in 1690 went on to serve the Williamites in the Battle of the Boyne. From Grand Prix to lawn tennis, Places we Play delves into all aspects of Ireland's sporting sites. The site of the first All-Ireland hurling final in Offaly is now home to a supermarket while the site in Belfast's Ormeau Park where North of Ireland Cricket Club played is now a housing estate. The heritage of Ireland is usually thought of in terms of landscape, big houses, battlefields, language & civic buildings. However, while Ireland is often termed 'sports mad', there has been no recording or celebration of the heritage built around Ireland's sporting activities. This book explores how Ireland developed a sporting infrastructure, celebrates significant sites across the country, & highlights why such spaces are important to the history of Irel&. From the Aviva stadium to the smallest GAA club, from exclusive golf clubs to derelict sites of former sporting glory, Ireland is dotted with sporting spaces. With the emergence of teams & seasons, sports clubs had to think about where they would play. Grounds & tracks were purchased, stands erected & facilities built. These places form a central part of Ireland's heritage with their richness of history, architecture & sporting endeavour. ...

Place Of Secrets

The night before it all begins, Jude has the dream again.. Can dreams be passed down through families? As a child Jude suffered a recurrent nightmare: running through a dark forest, crying for her mother. Now her six-year old niece, Summer, is having the same dream, and Jude is frightened for her. A successful auctioneer, Jude is struggling to come to terms with the death of her husband. When she's asked to value a collection of scientific instruments and manuscripts belonging to Anthony Wickham, a lonely 18th-century astronomer, she leaps at the chance to escape London for the untamed beauty of Norfolk, where she grew up. As Jude untangles Wickham's tragic story, she discovers threatening links to the present. What have Summer's nightmares to do with Starbrough folly, the
eerie crumbling tower in the woods from which Wickham and his adopted daughter Esther once viewed the night sky? With the help of Euan, a local naturalist, Jude searches for answers in the wild, haunting splendour of the Norfolk forests. Dare she leave behind the sadness in her own life, and learn to love again?
