Produktbeschreibung

An A-Z of Curious Northern Ireland describes the kinks and quirks of a fascinating and beautiful province with a recorded history dating back to the ancient Celts. It is a small place that's big on talent, the home of many world-class authors, musicians, artists and scientists. It is a land where the craic is mighty, where every tree, every flower, every rock tells a story. This book is full of those interesting places and talented people. It is a reliable, readable, often humorous reference guide that can be dipped into and enjoyed time and again.
