After first emerging in the 1920s, ladies Gaelic football was soon sidelined; breathless women chasing after a football was just too unladylike for the powers that be. Despite this resistance, the sport became a popular novelty act at local carnivals. And when the Ladies GaelicFootball Association (LGFA) was founded in Tipperary in July 1974, fifty years of extraordinary growth were set in motion.
From writing the rule book to a membership of nearly 200,000, the earliest All-Stars to game-changing partnerships, this definitive history captures that unstoppable journey to becoming a national sport and so much more. Lavishly illustrated and drawing from national, club and personal archives, UNLADYLIKE is for the players, the fans, the kit-washers, the sandwich-makers and the supporters alike, and confirms the best is yet to come.

Food, and specifically seafood, has always been a major part of Shine Carlier’s life. She told Donegal Live that cooking had always been a passion for her, ever since the days of Shine’s Takeaway in Killybegs, which was sold in May 2016 after being in operation for 21 years.
“I wanted the cookbook to be a promotion of Irish seafood and the benefits of our seafood, whether you buy it from your local fishmonger or from us,” commented Shine Carlier. “ We are an island nation, and we are quite low consuming of seafood.”

Windharp: Niall MacMonagle’s essential anthology of the last century of Irish poetry. The Easter Rising of 1916 was a foundational moment of the independent Irish state; but while that insurrection continues to divide opinion, there is no disagreement as to the majesty of Yeats’ ‘Easter 1916’, or about the excellence of the Irish poetic tradition over the past century. Windharp is an anthology that follows the twists and turns of Irish history, culture and society through the work of its remarkable standing army of poets.
Edited by Niall MacMonagle, Ireland’s most trusted poetry commentator, Windharp is an accessible and inspiring journey through a century of Irish life.

Cormac Carty lived on the island from 1945 till 1953 and his memories of those simpler times have now been printed posthumously, following Cormac’s death.
The book is almost like a collection of short stories which covers everything from starting school to journeys on a horse from the island to Knocknarea or bringing cattle to the fair.
Normally, bringing cattle would be a straightforward operation but bringing cows from Coney Island to a fair was nothing short of a very dangerous task.”
“Back then it (the island) was completely isolated and Cormac would have gone into Sligo town once a week to do the shopping and selling things he would have picked ‘The Champion’ up and without fail from cover to cover it would be read out and everyone would be listening for all the news.”

Graham Herterich, aka The Cupcake Bloke, has always been fascinated by taking classic Irish recipes and giving them a modern twist. By classic, he means bakes like soda bread, tarts, porter cake and brack all the way up to modern classics like jambons, cheesecakes and fifteens. In Bake: Traditional Irish Baking with Modern Twists, every recipe for a traditional bake is followed by a fresh new spin using the ingredients available in Ireland now, from advieh to zhug.
It may not be an exact update of the recipe – it could be a modern interpretation of the flavour combination or the concept, like a classic coffee and walnut cake reimagined as a coffee and walnut pavlova with coffee poached pears. Food is a powerful link to our past, so writing the book also became a trip down the memory lane of Graham’s childhood, teens and early twenties through to the last few years, when he became more confident in his food, flavours, inspirations and textures and realised that baking is more than just an action – it’s an invitation to the people you are going to share it with, a symbol of generosity and a gesture of love.
