Exhaustive research by the author of newly available primary source material has unearthed new facts surrounding the battle. The new information allows this edition to more accurately document and analyse the Battle of Clonmult. The book makes an enormous contribution to our understanding of the events surrounding this battle and of the manner in which both sides conducted their military operations during the War of Independence. New insight revealed by the author's research into the details of military operations by both sides is applicable not just to East Cork, but nationally. The information and analysis provided is timely as it increases our awareness of a period in our history which we are currently preparing to recognise and commemorate over the next few years.

In those two dark nights in Los Angeles, O'Neill finds the story of California in the sixties: when charlatans mixed with prodigies, free love was as possible as brainwashing, and utopia-or dystopia-was just an acid trip away.

Lavishly illustrated throughout, Carol McNeill tells the fascinating story of Kirkcaldy Harbour tracing its story from its sixteenth-century royal connections.

Grattan Fletcher and Suck Ryle are on the road, risking their dignity and occasionally their lives to renew the civic spirit of Ireland. Grattan is an idealistic, ageing civil servant who has enlisted Ryle, a skeptic prone to violent temper, in a quixotic quest to make a better Irish future for Grattan's granddaughter. Along the way, they encounter politicians, protesters, and power brokers, some of whom are fascinated and others only flummoxed by Grattan's wide sympathies and wild philosophical musings. In sprawling comic fashion, Grattan and Me addresses countless contemporary political, economic and ecological problems, allowing no person or institution to remain safe from ridicule.

Local historian and native of Kirkcaldy Carol McNeill has told us how much she enjoyed compiling this book not just the research but also walking around re-exploring and taking photographs of her home town. Kirkcaldy has seen dramatic changes over the years and this collection of old and present-day photographs really demonstrates just how much. In the High Street the trams have gone and the shops have new facias but away from the town centre there was much industry and much industrial housing some of it of poor quality so inevitably the town imrpovers and planners planned and improved these out of existence as they also did with Robert Adam's birthplace and Thomas Carlyle's house.

This fascinating pictorial history takes a look back at the days when Fife was home to a wide variety of traditional industries, including mining, farming, fishing, pottery and textile factories, shipping and shipbuilding.

Carol McNeill explores the fascinating history of Kirkcaldy's potteries.
