- Synopsis
- Well, now, have you heard about how the Irish fought for Alexander the Great? Or did you know that at one time the Irish were forbidden to wear trousers? Perhaps you don't know why the Irish revere John Paul Jones or how Jack the Ripper influenced Irish "Invincibles." Ah then, there's many a strange tale and capricious truth hidden in the history and lore of the Green Isle. 101 short, delightful, ironic and even outrageous tales. A list of additional Irish culture and history books, cookbooks and Gaelic/English dictionaries from Hippocrene Books is included.
