Amazon.com description: Product Description: Description from the back cover: 'The Northside' is tucked away in the remote and most south-westerly point of Ireland, on the Mizen Peninsula. It is a place of wild beauty, with rocky hills to the back, and overlooking the vibrant Dunmanus Bay. In the past it offered a harsh living, where man has protected himself from the elements blown in from the Atlantic and where one person often relied on another for survival. It gave a camaraderie that can rarely be found today. This book records a bygone way of life; work, play and traditions, tales, customs and history of the people of the Northside.
