Full of amusement, this series of fictional tales starts with a
Galwayman's arrival in Tipperary's post-famine days and portrays
the daily lives of a hillside community. Written in the colloquial
and lyrical language of some of our ancestors, it tells - amongst
others - such diverse stories as the reliance of families on
children rabbit-poaching, on the pre-dawn cattle-droving days of a
young school-leaver, the re-appearance of a dead girl to her
newly-born sister...along with a number of love-hate incidents,
like the townie scorn for a mountainy man at the show-fair, before
he walks off with the big trophy!
