| Summary |
Take a walk through this county in the heart of Ireland in the entertaining company of professional storyteller Doreen as she recounts local tales, ancient and modern. Hear of Lorcan O'Hanlon's love for the "Long Woman," the tradition of dancing on her grave, and how the Hound of Ulster recovered from war wounds on The Death Mound of Du Largy. You will also hear of St Brigid's association with Faughart, the doomed love of Lassara and her harpist who haunt the waters of Carlingford Lough on stormy nights, the ghost of Carlingford Castle, and where you might find leprechaun gold. Their origins lost in the mists of time, but these stores, illustrated with 25 line drawings, bring alive the county's dramatic landscape and is sure to appeal to both residents and tourists alike. |
