Irish Toasts and Blessings

Irish Toasts and Blessings is a collection of traditional salutations, toasts and blessings which were once commonly used in Ireland. Some still are... The toasts celebrate the Irish love of gathering in friendship. The blessings celebrate a love of God, gratitude for His divine help and joy in the natural world. The one thing the toasts and blessings all share is a love of friendship and life.

The collection provides a real insight into the Irish psyche and is illustrated with colour photography throughout – a wonderful gift idea that will linger in the mind long after reading.
