An Irish Country Childhood, by Marrie Walsh
€4.00

Quay Books
This is the heart-warming story of Marrie Walsh, growing up in the 1930s and 40s as part of an idyllic community in the beautiful County Mayo, West Ireland.
Her memoirs take the reader to a time and a way of life now long disappeared, exploring lives that were intricately bound with the natural world in a small, close-knit farming community that was as resourceful as it was poor. Poor in worldly wealth and tied to the land but rich in love, kindness and good spirit, the people brought to life in this book are an inspiring reminder of a way of life lost in the past.
