Síolta an Iomais

Paperback. 75pp. Bog/Paperback. Faightear plé sa chnuasach nua ar Dhia, an dúlra, nádúr na filíochta, an choimhlint idir an sean agus an nua, an ceangal idir an dúchas agus an domhan mór maille le cur síos ar ghrá an fhile dá ceantar dúchais, Corca Dhuibhne. I gCorcaigh a rugadh Bríd Ní Mhóráin, ach is i gCiarraí a tógadh í. Is é seo an triú cnuasach s'aici. This collection explores nature, God, the conflict between the new and the old, the connection between heritage and the world, the nature of poetry and the poet's love for her home in Corca Dhuibhne. Bríd was born in Cork but grew up in Kerry. This is her third poetry collection. Ceiliúradh Cré was published in 1992 and Fé Bhrat Bhríde was published in 2002.

The Wonderful Adventures of Paul Bunyan. [16 Tales]. * The character o...

Paul / Retold By Louis Untermeyer (1885-1977)...

Hardcover. Large 8vo. ..An imprint of George Macy Companies, Ltd., Heritage Press was founded in 1935. The Press printed more affordable classic volumes that were previously published by Macy’s Limited Editions Club and covered a broad range of topics primarily within the Western canon. In addition to Macy, directors of the Heritage Press included Cedric Crowell, General Manager of the Doubleday Bookshops; Frank L. Magel, head of Putnam Bookstores in New York; and A. Koch, head of Brentano Stores in New York. Though many of Macy’s other imprints, including The Heritage Club, The Heritage Illustrated Bookshelf, and The Junior Heritage Club, were sold by subscription only, Heritage Press editions were sold through bookstores. Macy combined his publishing enterprises in 1944, though each imprint maintained its specific target audience. The archives of the George Macy Companies, including both the Limited Editions Club and The Heritage Press, were purchased by the Ransom Center in 1970.
