Irish Blessings Toasts & Curses

Irish Blessings Toasts & Curses
by Padraic O'Farrell
US$8.98
eBook
Irish people have blessings, toasts, and curses for every occasion and are renowned for yarns and stories. They have a gift of the gab which may come from kissing The Blarney Stone! This collection of humourous quotations is full of wit and merriment but the sayings come from times of revolution, famine, and hardship. This volume is a treasure trove of blessings, toasts, and curses and is an ideal gift for those of Irish heritage seeking to celebrate St. Patrick's Day (or St Patty's Day!) and St Brigid's day, which is now a national bank holiday in Ireland.
