Fine/Fine. 160 p. : chiefly col. ill. ; 29 x 32 cm. ; ISBN: 0517402726; 9780517402726 ; LC: DA978.2; Dewey: 941.5082/4 ; OCLC: 16058221 ; This book looks at the effect the Irish have had and continue to have on their adopted lands and their ties and connections with countries all over the world. It also looks through stunning colour photographs at the land they or their forefathers left behind. ; Terence Sheehy started with the periodical The Irish Catholic in Dublin from 1942-46. After spells writing on cinema and then hotels he joined the Irish Tourist Board and was posted to north America. After he was made general manager of Bord Failte Eireann in London; then in 1983 he was persuaded out of retirement to become editor of the Catholic Herald where he proved so successful that he stayed for five years arresting the decline in circulation and guiding the paper through its centenary celebrations in 1988. To counterbalance his own inbred traditionalism he surrounded himself with a team of novice journalists brimming with more radical ideas than his own. On retirement he produced a series of celebrations of his home country in print. --adapted from Peter Stanford of the Guardian ; Contents ; The Irish and America -- The Irish and Canada -- The Irish and Australia -- The Irish and New Zealand -- The Irish and South America -- The Irish and the Continent Europe -- Irish roots ; FINE/FINE New York : Crescent Books : Distributed by Crown Publishers, 1986 hardcover
