Irish Baking Book
These wonderful, wholesome and traditional recipes have been carefully collected and baked by Ruth Isabel Ross over many years. Good, plain, wholesome cooking at it's best. Favourites such as Irish brown bread, soda bread and scones are included, along with recipes for fruit breads, cakes and biscuits, puddings, pies and savoury dishes. Many of the recipes have been made in Irish homes for hundreds of years and the author has included recipes that were made for certain feastdays, such as Boxty, traditionally served on All Saints' Day, and Barm Brack eaten on 1 February (St Brigid's Day) and at Hallowe'en. The last section is for simple 'no flour' bakes and includes savoury and sweet recipes.
The Country Cooking of Ireland
The acclaimed food and travel writer brings to life the people, countryside, and delicious food of Ireland in this James Beard Award–winning cookbook. Fast emerging as one of the world’s hottest culinary destinations, Ireland is a country of small farms, artisanal bakers, cheese makers, and butteries. Farm-to-table dining has been practiced here for centuries. Meticulously researched and reported by Saveur magazine founder Colman Andrews, this sumptuous cookbook includes 250 recipes and more than 100 photographs of the pubs, the people, and the emerald Irish countryside taken by award-winning photographer Christopher Hirsheimer. Rich with stories of the food and people who make Ireland a wonderful place to eat, and laced with charming snippets of song, folklore, and poetry, The Country Cooking of Ireland ushers in a new understanding of Irish food.
An Irish Florilegium
Wendy Walsh, following in the traditions of botanical artists from previous ages, has put her exceptional skills to marvellous effect in this beautiful collection of watercolour drawings. She has painted here a selection of the native and cultivated flora of Ireland, where she lives, chosen not only for their botanical interest or attractiveness but also because they happen to have an interesting history: Ireland has produced a surprising number of devoted and intrepid plant-hunters who played a significant part in the introduction into Europe of plants from remote places. Ruth Isabel Ross recounts the history of plant collecting and horticulture by the Irish since earliest times, and Dr Charles Nelson has written extensive notes on the individual plants. The main attraction of this book, however, remains the delicate and subtle watercolour drawings of Wendy Walsh, who works only from nature, painting the actual plants which are her subjects.

Potato soups, fish cakes, Irish stew, bacon and cabbage, colcannon are just some of the dozens of delicious recipes that invoke the best of Irish traditional cooking and Irish ingredients.
The Irish in the Resistance
'You simply couldn't stand by with your arms folded.' These were the words of Samuel Beckett who famously returned to France from a holiday in Ireland when World War II broke out. His clandestine work against the Nazi occupation of Europe is well documented, but there were many other ordinary Irish people who joined the underground network. Some took up arms. Others gathered intelligence, sheltered fugitives, committed acts of sabotage or broke codes. This new history tells the stories of those forgotten Irish men and women. Discover Captain John Keany from Cork, who parachuted into occupied Italy to help the local Resistance; Margaret Kelly, the Dublin founder of the world-famous Bluebell G...
