Book Description
A dramatic journey that takes place between youthful aspirations and the brink of despair and terrible death Love, war, and remembering are all powerful themes in this moving story. The difficulties my family faced between the First and Second World Wars are the basis of this unusual book that I, a Holocaust survivor's son, have written. It is a heartbreaking tale of the journey from youthful hopes and dreams to the edge of despair and eventual death. The story is about burning love, the futility of war, and the extermination of innocent people because of different beliefs. Based on a true story, it took me three years of research and uncounted travel to Poland. It is not an easy book to read and is geared toward adult readers.

Book Description
Romany Legends Daniel and Dolly Buckley The Gypsy Way traces Mary King’s unique family history back to the 1920s. The book follows the Buckleys, a well-known Romany gypsy family that lived according to gypsy traditions. The book contains tales, reflections, memories and anecdotes of days gone by; from when Daniel and Dolly were just young children, to them raising their own young family whilst living in a wagon. The couple faced struggles on a daily basis, but lived a happy, content life. The end of their lives saw their funerals becoming events of an unprecedented scale, and rightly so, for in their time this couple were living legends. “Many of the gypsies of today will be amazed by my upbringing, as it won’t be the familiar gypsy way that they live and breathe now; but it was the only way of life I knew as a child.” Inspired by Maggie Smith-Bendell’s Rabbit Stew and a Penny or Two, the book provides a unique insight into Romany gypsy life, which Mary hopes will inspire readers to preserve traditions that are lost in modern life. Romany Legends Daniel and Dolly Buckley The Gypsy Way is illustrated with photographs and will appeal to readers who want to learn more about gypsy traditions.

Book Description
When Olivias daughter Lilly and older sister Kathleen take an equestrian holiday on the western coast of Ireland, they fulfill Olivias request for a tiny box of Irish earth for her garden in exchange for a lock of her hair. While the request seems harmless enough, the trade is made unwittingly at the grave site of a legendary warrior, setting off a chain of events that catapult Olivia back in time two thousand years to Eriu (ancient Ireland) where she lands in the arms of none other than the noble Air-echta (Kings champion) Lord Samus Kildare of Munster. Mockingbird Moon is a fun, fast paced historical romance that romps its way through perils of high adventure, fierce clan loyalties, court intrigues and bitter territorial grievances. Pagan Ireland is splashed across a cultural landscape of prehistory, legend and the Brehen laws of mystical Eriu.
