Hi,
Im just wondering which one of these are good books to get for my Dad Originally from Kerry and was a primary school teacher (so he knows a lot about a lot).
Thinking of getting him the 100 objects of Ireland by O' Toole, or the men will talk to me:kerry interviews by Ernie O' Malley bu Cormac O Malley or Puck fair by Sean Moraghan?
Any other ideas?
