It also looks, through stunning colour photographs, at the land they or their forefathers left behind. ; Terence Sheehy started with the periodical, The Irish Catholic, in Dublin from 1942-46. After spells writing on cinema and then hotels, he joined the Irish Tourist Board, and was posted to north America. After, he was made general manager of Bord Failte Eireann in London; then, in 1983, he was persuaded out of retirement to become editor of the Catholic Herald, where he proved so successful that he stayed for five years, arresting the decline in circulation and guiding the paper through its centenary celebrations in 1988. To counterbalance his own inbred traditionalism, he surrounded himself with a team of novice journalists brimming with more radical ideas than his own. On retirement, he produced a series of celebrations of his home country in print. --adapted from Peter Stanford of the Guardian ; Contents ; The Irish and America -- The Irish and Canada -- The Irish and Australia -- The Irish and New Zealand -- The Irish and South America -- The Irish and the Continent [Europe] -- Irish roots ; FINE/FINE.
