The road to McCarthy

Hunting for mythical tales of his own clan history and pursuing far-flung Irish connections to their illogical conclusions, Pete McCarthy is thrust into a world-wide adventure, unearthing a good print in the most unexpected locations along the way. From the Holy Ground of Cork harbour via the Fried Breakfast Zone of Belfast airport, he travels to Gibraltar and Morocco, searching for his hereditary Gaelic chief in the casbah of Tangier. He survives worrying confrontations with ornamental monkeys, and en endangered species of goose, and a bar full of drunken Glasgwegian Celtic supporters. McCarhy's unique combination of laugh-out-loud humour and heartfelt insights lights the way for all travellers to the road to McCarthy.
