For the devotee of Irish heritage, mythology or folklore, County
Sligo has everything. From the Curlew mountains in the south, where
Aodh Ruadh O Domhnaill defeated an English army under Sir Conyers
Clifford, to Benbulben's slopes in the north, where St Colmcille
battled the High King of Ireland, every hill and valley is linked
by the gossamer threads of myth, folklore and legend. These
stories, some age-old legends and fantastical myths, some amusing
anecdotes and cautionary tales, are a heady mix of the
bloodthirsty, funny and passionate and a selection of the best are
retold here by writer and local historian Joe McGowan. In these
pages you will find little-known anecdotes of the traditional ways
of Sligo's residents, their customs and superstitions; you will
find stories of epic battles and heroic deeds; and you will also
hear the fantastical accounts of mythical creatures, faeries,
witches and the ghosts of Connacht itself.
Clearing the Hurdles is Joe McGowan's extraordinary story. He has
lovingly crafted every word of this book with meticulous attention
to every detail, from the writing and photography, to the design of
the book itself. The end result is the story of someone who has
lived life at the pace of a Gold Cup horse in sight of the winning
post. His love of words, writing, poetry and music embellish every
page, and not only commemorate a life less ordinary but chronicle a
remarkable era in the country he helped to build.
