- Book Synopsis
- This book is a quirky illustrated travelogue memoir by the inimitable retired Irish-born Glasgow journalist Hugh Dogherty of his week touring and exploring Ireland by public transport when he was an 18-year-old. It's fully illustrated with his photographs and a picture of his long-kept battered and sellotaped 1969 summer trains timetable! With just the cash in your pocket and no ATMs or mobile phones, travel was a bit different from today if things went awry. You can feel Hugh's excitement and fear, too, in his recollections! Locations include Loughrea Station, Cork, Connolly Station in Dublin, Portarlington, Cork Kent Station, Cork Bus Station, Cobh, Tralee, Attymon Junction, Pearse Station, a mad crazy busy Wexford Quay, Howth, and Waterside Station in Derry.
