From things you’ll only hear and taste in Ireland to tips for surviving any social situation (an Irish wedding anyone?!), Irishology is the ultimate warm, witty and irreverent guide to all things Irish.

While officially in Ireland we may have only two languages, in truth is it is probably closer to three: English, Irish and Irish-English. And it is this third language, Irish-English, that most of us on our fair island now speak.Irishisms examines many of the words and phrases that colour this unique language and in doing so attempts to shed light on all the wonderful ways we have for saying how average we are, what we really mean when we say sorry, how to describe your level of insobriety, the difference between a wagon and a weapon and when awful is better than savage.

In his second book Ronan Moore, author of Irishology, has created a humorous and irreverent guide to every county in Ireland: Galway, where rainfall is measured not in millimetres but in days; Limerick which is ‘a little like the Keyser Soze of Irish counties with a name far more notorious than the place ever was’; and of course Fermanagh, which regularly tops the list of Irish counties that people forget when trying to name all 32.With a keen eye and a sharp wit Ronan Moore takes us on a cheeky tour of Ireland, pointing out the finest features of our fair isle along the way. Discover a side of Ireland you’ve never seen before with Irishography.
