About This Item

Cottage Publications, 10/1/2020. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Laurel Cottage Ltd, 2002. Condition: Fine, No Dust Jacket as issued. Clean gently read book. About: FEATURING a lovely padded cover and full of beautiful illustrations, By The Lough's North Shore is an excellent read. It forms part of a much-complimented illustrated book series on various areas of Ulster and Eire. By The Lough's North Shore , would be of great interest to anyone who knows the general South East Antrim area specifically Carrickfergus as it prominently features Carrick Castle, the Andrew Jackson centre and the King Billy statue by the castle. The book starts with an extensive and fascinating history lesson. Entitled The People of the North Shore Part 1 it recounts how around 7000 BC nomadic people traveled across Europe searching for a new homeland. It's believed that they first set foot in the area around Larne. The history lesson continues with a detailed look at the invasion of the Celts (in the 5th century BC) and the introduction of Christianity, by Patrick in the 4th Century and the later arrival of the Vikings and their descendants, the Norman's. The book is cleverly set out in a geographical manner starting with Belfast Castle and ending with the Black Head Lighthouse. It means that readers can 'do a tour' of the area. Sites visited have two pages devoted to them – one of text, the other an excellent painting of the subject matter. This combination works really well, it makes you want to turn the page to find out what's next on the 'tour'! ABGGG
