Maureen O'Hara
From her first appearances on the stage and screen, Maureen O'Hara (b. 1920) commanded attention with her striking beauty, radiant red hair, and impassioned portrayals of spirited heroines. Whether she was being rescued from the gallows by Charles Laughton ( The Hunchback of Notre Dame, 1939), falling in love with Walter Pidgeon against a coal-blackened sky ( How Green Was My Valley, 1941), learning to believe in miracles with Natalie Wood ( Miracle on 34th Street, 1947), or matching wits with John Wayne ( The Quiet Man, 1952), she charmed audiences with her powerful presence and easy confidence. Maureen O'Hara is the first book-length biography of the screen legend hailed as the "Queen of T...
'Tis Herself
A first-ever revealing and candid look at the life and career of one of Hollywood’s brightest and most beloved stars, Maureen O’Hara. In an acting career of more than seventy years, Hollywood legend Maureen O’Hara came to be known as “the queen of Technicolor” for her fiery red hair and piercing green eyes. She had a reputation as a fiercely independent thinker and champion of causes, particularly those of her beloved homeland, Ireland. In ‘Tis Herself, O’Hara recounts her extraordinary life and proves to be just as strong, sharp, and captivating as any character she played on-screen.

Seanachie
This story is as told by the patriarch of the O’Kelleher clan, John O’Kelleher, to his two great-grand-children, Sean and ‘Little Bell’. He is the Seanachie, the ‘Story Teller’. His very long life bridged a part of two centuries. He was born in Ireland in 1783, and he died in America in 1880. This is the story of an Irish family’s struggle in Ireland, to survive on a day-to-day basis, while living under the oppressive ‘boot heel’ of a tyrannical foreign government. Their struggle was very much like living with a time bomb, when you never knew just when it might explode. Finally, one day it happened, the family was torn apart by a very violent event which changed its life forever. This is a story of persecution, murder, love, revenge, retribution, sorrow and the bitterness that had developed between two loving brothers. It is an adventure story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, during the mid-nineteenth century. It also attempts to explain my theory of how many Irish surnames were possibly changed after these illiterate immigrants arrived in America. I offer my readers two possible reasons for the changes.
Tales My Father Told Me*
In this original collection of short stories, author E. R. Morris updates classic nursery rhymes and fairytales with a modern, grown-up bent. Written with other adults in mind—especially grandparents—Morris gives these well-worn tales a wry sardonic spin, often asking how they might change if they were set today. Threaded through these mature re-tellings is a constellation of fascinating historical information about their origins. Deftly weaving these facts in with these ironic re-tellings, Morris offers a truly unique collection sure to inspire laughter and eyebrow-raising for the grown-ups familiar with the originals, who might just learn something along the way, too.
