FINALLY MEETING PRINCESS MAUD

by Seamus Dunleavy and Shirley Thompson

Seamus' fascinating life story stands in two worlds: the older Charlestown County Mayo world, of donkeys and fleas, teachers and characters, banshees and fairy forts, contrasting with the modern, more tangible world of wrestling, nightclubs, pubs and hotels and property development. With all the skills of the traditional Irish storyteller, Seamus relives his childhood and relates how, after he emigrated to England at seventeen, he and his brother, Mickey, became famous wrestlers. Now a highly successful businessman, Seamus has built a permanent life for himself and his family in England, but keeps in touch with his Irish roots, via frequent return trips to Ireland. With a Foreword by Professor Carl Chinn, M.B.E. this is a story not to be missed!
