If you want to know Limerick, read Denis O'Shaughnessy's books. He has been writing for the past decade about the city's colourful characters, their humour and varied traditions, the rugby ethos, tads of lesser known history, quaint expressions used, all abounding throughout his publications.
Richard Harris was a great fan stating on radio that ‘O’Shaughnessy’s books show us the real Limerick,’ while Con Houlihan wrote that ‘Denis O’Shaughnessy is a story-teller of the first order and like the late Jim Kemmy, is a guardian of Limerick’s past.’
While most of Denis’s books are out of print, three, ‘A Spot So Fair’, ‘The Bus Excursion’ and ‘More Tales of Limerick’ are still available (at reduced prices), and can be purchased directly from the author.
Why not buy all three for the special price of €22.00 plus €3.00 P&P!
