Growing up on a secluded smuggling route along the border of Northern Ireland and the Republic, Packy Jim McGrath regularly heard the news, songs, and stories of men and women who stopped to pass the time. In his early years, he was all ears - now it is his turn to talk. His stories reveal an worldview that is both idiosyncratic and shared, and offer a window into Irish vernacular culture.
