Northern Ireland is a fascinating, stunningly beautiful province with a recorded history dating back to the ancient Celts. It may be the smallest country in the UK, but it has three Nobel Prizes for English Literature connected to it as well as many world-class musicians, artists and scientists.
It is a land where the craic is mighty, where every tree, every flower, every rock tells a story.
The A-Z of Curious Northern Ireland explores the quirks and peculiarities of the country's talented people and the interesting places they call home. Recorded in a reliable, readable, often humorous style, it is a handy reference guide that can be dipped into and enjoyed over and over again.
DOREEN McBRIDE is a retired biology teacher with an interest in the environment, folklore, local history and storytelling. She spent a year seconded to the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum to develop materials for schools using the grounds from a scientific point of view. The museum published those materials and asked her to write a guide for children, which was published by Longmans in 1988. She had a career change in 1991 and became an international, award-winning professional storyteller. She served for 12 years on the then Southern Education and Library Board and was President of Association of Northern Ireland Education and Library Boards (2004-2005). She is a prolific author of local history books, including seven for The History Press and contributes to local periodicals. She has had three plays broadcast on Radio Ulster and she lives in Banbridge, Co. Down.
