'The Folklore of Wexford' takes a personal and contemporary look at the practices, customs and beliefs of County Wexford through the eyes and ears of Michael; a man who was born,
reared and lived in the county for most of his life.
This book comes from the ground up, and features the voices, stories and practices of his neighbours, family and friends and people he has encountered over the past two decades whilst recording and sharing living folklore around Ireland.
Michael offers an insight into the practices of this unique corner of Ireland, highlighting commonalities and differences with other counties, while exploring the links with wider European practices and across the Atlantic, in particular with Newfoundland, Canada.
By drawing on his wide and expert knowledge of the subject, coupled with his natural enthusiasm, he has created a publication that will be a true and reflective source on the folklore of Wexford for many years to come.
