Review #73
Don't get shook up...I did not read this book in 2 days! I have been reading it on and off for several weeks!
There are approximately 40 million people of Irish descent in America today and they are not the only ones who have made books such as How the Irish Saved Civilization and Angela's Ashes international best sellers. This Complete Idiot's Guide contains exhaustive, easy-to-follow coverage of all of Irish history from the Celts to the Dark Ages… to the crucial role of Christianity… to conflicts with England… to the vital Irish assimilation into American culture. This book includes concise biographies of great Irish leaders, as well as profiles of famous poets, novelists, playwrights, short story writers, artists, actors, and more.
Whether you are Irish or not, if you have an interest in the Irish, you will love this book! I would also recommend it for parents whose children are studying Ireland.
I liked it so much, I actually bought it after returning the Library’s copy.
(I am of Scots-Irish-English-Cherokee Indian descent.)
