Country Days

Alice Taylor's books have made her almost as beloved among Irish-Americans as St. Patrick himself. With nearly a million copies of her books in print internationally, she continues to be the most popular writer in Ireland today. Country Days , her newest volume of glorious reminiscences of life in Eire, is now finally available in paperback. Like its predecessors -- including the classic To School Through the Fields -- it is filled with character and characters, delicious sensory memories, and stories remembered with whimsy and warmth. It may well be Taylor's best book yet. "Sweet-natured and filled with amusement at life's twists and turns, Taylor ( To School Through the Fields ) should please fans and win herself new admirers with this collection of autobiographical anecdotes interspersed with homely poems celebrating everyday life." - Publishers Weekly
