Heritage Week is almost upon us. Running from the 20th -28th August it will see hundreds of historical and cultural events taking place across Ireland. I am delighted to announce I am speaking at three events.
Castlecomer
On Tuesday August 23 p.m. I will be launching my book and presenting a talk on the Black Death in Castlecomer Library at 7pm. I have set up a facebook event here where you follow updates. If you have listened to the Communism and Coal Series you can make a day of it. Visit the mining experience in the discovery park, have some of the amazing food there before heading to the talk that evening.
Clonmel
Next up is Clonmel at 7-30 p.m. Wednesday 24 August where I will be talking about prostitution in Medieval Ireland. I will be returning to this podcast where I looked at the life of one Irish medieval prostitute Cristiana Sadelhackere.
Castledermot
Then on Fridayat 7 p.m. August 27 I am speaking in Castledermot Library. Here I will be returning to the topic of the Black Death based on my book. The Facebook event is here.
If you cant make these events, my book 1348: A Medieval Apocalypse – The Black Death in Ireland is now available through Amazon.
It’s the perfect gift for that person into history who’s impossible to buy for. I dont mean to cause alarm but in 132 days time on a certain holiday you will need something on hand for them!
