It's the time of year ... to run away from your life Holly is looking for an escape - from the trappings of Christmas, her least favourite time of year, and from the fallout of her decision to call off her wedding six weeks before the big day. A job decluttering a remote country house back in Ireland seems like the answer to her prayers. But when Holly arrives at Knockboden, it's in a far worse state than she expected, and there's no money available to carry out glamorous owner Serena's very big, and very unrealistic, renovation plans. Just when Holly is tempted to run away again, Serena gets a phone call that looks set to change the fate of Knockboden - and she'll need Holly to make it happen. So, as the countdown to Christmas begins, Holly ignores the interference of Serena's handsome but moody son and works hard to help save the Harpur family home. And at the most wonderful time of year, nothing can go wrong ... right? 'Joyously exuberant' Irish Examiner 'Unputdownable' Irish Central

Vanishing Ireland

In Vanishing Ireland II, the follow up to the bestselling Vanishing Ireland I, we take another journey down memory lane and, through a unique collection of portrait interviews, we look at the dying ways and traditions of Irish life. Illustrated with over a hundred evocative and stunning photographs, we meet the people and the customs that are fast becoming a distant memory. Through their own words and memories, men and women from every corner of Ireland transport us back to a simpler time when people lived off the land and the sea, and when music and storytelling were essential parts of life. Vanishing Ireland brings together the stories of those who lived through Ireland's formative years. These poignant interviews and photographs will make you laugh and cry but, above all, will provide a valuable chronicle that connects twenty-first century Ireland to a rapidly disappearing world.

Old friends, new complications - will this be a season to remember? The festive season has begun and Immy Brooks is more than a little distracted. Shillington's, the beloved luxury department store where she works as a personal shopper, is struggling. And her relationship with her best friend (and soon-to-be boss) Lando Shillington has become very complicated. She and Lando spent the night together before he left for Paris. And while he's away, learning the ropes before he takes over the store and hopefully restores it to its former glory, Immy realises their friendship could be something more. She prides herself on knowing what people want, so she's sure he feels the same. Even though he hasn't been in touch . . . When Lando returns with a glamorous new girlfriend and ideas for drastic changes to Shillington's, Immy is devastated. As Christmas Eve approaches and Lando's plans start to take shape, how can she make him see that not everything needs to change - and that maybe happiness has been right in front of him all along?

Ireland's Forgotten Past

Why did the Romans never try to conquer Ireland? Why did the King of Spain give his name to an Irish county? And how did brandy change the course of Irish history? Turtle Bunbury explores unexpected corners of the past to offer an informative and entertaining glimpse into 36 lesser-known tales from Irish history, from the eruption of a massive volcano in County Armagh sixty million years ago to more recent events that have made Ireland the vibrant place it is today. In his inimitable sparkly style, Bunbury explores the people and events from high to low that played major roles in Irelands fascinating past but have since been overlooked. These alternative annals include tales of spymasters and scientists, battlefields and brothels, tailors and traitors. Irelands Forgotten Past paints a surprising, witty and engaging new portrait of an Ireland you thought you knew.

Becoming Centaur

In this study of the relationship between men and their horses in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century England, Monica Mattfeld explores the experience of horsemanship and how it defined one’s gendered and political positions within society. Men of the period used horses to transform themselves, via the image of the centaur, into something other—something powerful, awe-inspiring, and mythical. Focusing on the manuals, memoirs, satires, images, and ephemera produced by some of the period’s most influential equestrians, Mattfeld examines how the concepts and practices of horse husbandry evolved in relation to social, cultural, and political life. She looks closely at the role of horses in...
