Launch of the 40th anniversary edition of Grace O'Malley's biography

 

Thanks to family, friends and fans of Grace O'Malley for their presence in the Royal Irish Academy on 12th of November to launch the new edition of my Grace biography.

What a joyful and and celebratory night...the only one missing was 'Herself' who I hope was looking down approvingly.

Special thanks to former Taoiseach, Enda Kenny and to Ellen O'Malley Dunlop for doing the honours, to my publishers Gill and my literary agent Jonathan Williams.

My voyage in the company of Granuaile seems set to continue.
