facility if is advantageous to do so.

Comic, colourful and succinct, with short text, lots of pictures
and jokey captions, this is a brilliant introduction to the story
of Ireland. From its pictorial endpaper maps to the panels of
'Irish Icons' ranging from Brian Boru to the Abbey Theatre, it is
packed with useful and fascinating information. A story that is
often complicated and turbulent is told with sensitivity and
clarity, from the first legends right up to the present day. The
Story of Ireland is the follow-up to Richard Brassey and Stewart
Ross's The Story of Scotland, which won the Saltire Society/TES
Award for Educational Publications and the Scottish Arts Council
Children's Book Award.
A lively and highly readable account of the origins, invention and discovery of just about everything on the planet, the truly global coverage of The First of Everything ranges from the Big Bang to driverless cars.
The First of Everything follows a context-setting introduction with seven stimulating sections: In the Beginning (The Big Bang to Homo Sapiens), At Home (the first glass windows to dentures and bikinis); Health and Medicine (herbs to heart transplants); Getting About (donkeys to double deckers); Science and Engineering (potter's wheel to webcam); Peace and War (the first king to fighter-bombers); and Culture (cave painting to rap). This fascinating book takes in the full sweep of human development and ingenuity over twelve millennia; Africa, for example, gave us the first monarch, algebra and great religions emerged from the Middle East, democracy was born in Europe, and America made the first flying machines. More than just a string of dry lists, the colourful text's intriguing insights and asides make it as enjoyable for the casual browser as the more serious researcher.
