Festival Legends; Songs& Stories There are over fifty million
American's of Irish descent in the United States alone. The
flourishing of Irish festivals throughout the world, but especially
in the U. S., has shown that just how popular the Irish culture and
Irish entertainers are. Today, it is very cool to be Irish. That
was not always so. Festival Legends: Songs & Stories offers an
entertaining but historically accurate chronicle of the iconic
Irish music performers that ignited this ever growing popularity
and continue to fuel it today. This is a detailed,
behind-the-scenes recounting of the journeys, backgrounds,

prestige - and the future, of the Irish, with each new achievement
and inspiration. These achievements have carried them to the top of
their field, and earned them superstar status in the history of the
indelibly linked American and Irish histories. Those featured
