Shillelagh
For centuries the Irish have been associated with a stick weapon called the Shillelagh. And for generations of Irishmen, the Shillelagh was a badge of honor - a symbol of their courage, their martial prowess and their willingness to fight for their rights and their honor. In modern popular culture, the Shillelagh has acquired a less appealing image, one that attempts to declaw the Irish through negative racial stereotypes of the Victorian era, which depict the Irish as harmless club-weilding Leprecauns or drunken, half-witted brawlers. John Hurley's illuminating study forever alters our view of this much maligned and misunderstood cultural icon by revealing the true martial arts culture of the Irish people, its history, evolution and decline and the resulting effects on the Shillelagh - the most powerful and controversial of Irish icons.

"A gripping and unsettling new novel by the award-winning author of The Loney that asks how much we owe to tradition, and how far we will go to preserve it"--
The Roofers
Life is anything but boring for a roofing crew of good old Northern Ontario boys who work hard and party harder. This unforgettable cast of characters includes Dillon, Bossman, Brudder, Johnny the Ripper, Glenny, and What – a man of few words who seems to have trouble keeping his pants on, plus the beautiful bikinied “Brew Crew Girls”, who sit in the back of a pick-up truck turned swimming pool and give out business cards to potential customers. Although their days are filled with hard work and dealing with the harassing tactics of their competitors, the boys’ nights and weekends are filled with drinking, fighting, backyard barbecues, and good-natured practical jokes. That is, until ...
