A Wee Taste a' Craic

All the Irish craic from the Celtic Roots Radio shows 2-25

The Celtic Roots Radio show consists of 30 minutes of great Celtic and roots music, with commentary from Raymond on whatever topic happens to occur to him at the time: be it history, language, customs, personal anecdotes ...

This book is based on the scripts from the first 25 shows and covers places such as Belfast, Down, Antrim, Armagh, Derry and Fermanagh in the north; Dublin, Cork, Cavan and Donegal in the south; plus London, Israel and China, for good measure.

Other topics include: landscape; language; history; 'Buck Alec'; baking; Irish 'navvies'; European immigrants; Northern Irish humour and banter; the author's boat, 'Warrior Maid'; C.S. Lewis and other Irish writers; The Troubles; the hero, CúChulainn; Listooder; and the author's family history.

Go on a journey with Raymond to get the real flavour of Ireland and the Irish from a distinctive northern perspective!
