JAYWALKING WITH THE IRISH

American David Monagan always dreamed of relocating to Ireland, the land of his forebears. In 2001 he did just that, moving his family from Connecticut to the dynamic city of Cork, which has been selected as the International City of Culture of 2005. With humour and candour, Jaywalking with the Irish describes the pleasures and pitfalls of relocating a feisty family to a foreign land. A compelling portrait of modern Ireland, this travel narrative will appeal to anyone who has thought of making a new start somewhere else.
