From the depths of the island's past to more recent booms and busts, Irish history is replete with mesmerising stories.

If you're intrigued by tales of human tragedy, executions, wars, grave-robbing, rioting, man-eating Kerry eagles, rat-eating Belfast gamblers and Ardee cross-dressers, then this is the book for you. In this fascinating - and often hilarious - romp through the lesser-known facts of Irish history, Frank Hopkins delivers a story for every single day of the year.

Based on years of extensive research, and delivered with Hopkins' unique wit and humour, Ireland's Hidden Histories is a must for Irish history lovers, general readers and anyone with a curiosity for the strange antics of our forebears.
