The Horrible History of Ireland tells you about centuries of dreadful deeds, from cruel Celtic chieftains and suffering saints to the troubled 20th century. Want to why wax models were captured and made Prisoners of War, which warriors went into battle naked? & how to make yourself invisible? Read on for a visit to the chambers of horrors (if you dare), a game to make you hurl, and the top twenty Irish curses. Find out the tragic truth about Ireland's foul famines, savage sieges and wretched rebellions, and the incredible Irish who lived and died in them. History has never been so horrible!
