Irish Manchester Revisited

Irish Manchester Revisited Synopsis

The Irish have always been proud of their contribution to Manchester. Alan Keegan and Danny Claffey's Irish Manchester: A Third Selection combines many previously unpublished photographs with well-researched captions to create a fascinating picture of the Irish community in the city. Among the themes featured are suburbs, characters, shops, clubs, buildings, events and entertainment of the past. Packed with memories, anecdotes and people, this is the ultimate guide to Manchester's strong links with the Emerald Isle. Two chapters are being contributed by notable local characters Joe Casserley (who presents a local radio show) and Rose Morris of the Irish Heritage Centre.
