When Marie Gray wrote her 1997 bestseller, 'Irish In The Blood', she had only ever spent a few days in Ireland. In that book she explored the colourful past of her ancestors, who left Ireland in the 19th century to live in New Zealand. The next logical step seemed to be to visit the places she had written about, and to rediscover lost branches of the family.
'Irish At Heart' is a highly entertaining account of Marie Gray's journey to Ireland and what she found there. It includes her frequent hilarious exchanges with the natives, her love affair with the Irish countryside, and her close call with the tragic Omagh bomb.
Marie Gray writes with a freshness and vitality that makes all her experiences come alive. She is a witty and intelligent companion on a personal excursion around the Emerald Isle that is both pleasurable and poignant.
