Light a cozy fire, pour yourself a dram or a pint, and curl up with these charming tales of Christmas from Ireland's past. Here's your personal invitation to share an evening with a wealth of lively characters weaving tales about love, sentiment, comedy, drink, fantasy, ghosts, melodrama, and villainy.
Rich with superstitious and unusual customs, these aren't ordinary Christmas tales. These are so redolent of the Irish spirit that you can almost smell the succulent goose and hear the tenor voice of John McCormack on the gramophone.
Lovers of long gone Celtic life are sure to enjoy this collection of 14 heartwarming holiday tales never captured in an anthology before.
