| Summary: | "For centuries, the Irish have had an impact on the world far beyond what you would expect for a tiny nation on the edge of Europe. Here, we learn how the Irish have revolutionized global agriculture, brought water to Los Angeles, split the atom, invented the submarine and the tank, created drinking chocolate, and many more fascinating stories! This book covers a wide range of topics including how the Irish built New York, why a Cork woman was awarded Israel's highest honor and how the Irish helped create the modern-day horror genre."--Amazon.com. |
