Our Like Will Not Be There Again by Lawrence Millman
Award-winning travel writer Lawrence Millman tromps through western Ireland's rugged countryside to record the oral history of its people before their hard-earned traditions are permanently stifled by industrialization and development. In doing so he produces a lovely nugget of good writing (New York Times) that relays the stories of traditional laborers--tinkers cartwrights, rat-charmers, coopers, thatchers, farriers, gleemen, pig-gelders--with candor and depth.
Millman, Lawrence: - Author-mycologist Lawrence Millman has written 16 other books including such titles as Last Places, Lost in the Arctic, An Evening Among Headhunters, Wolverine the Trickster, A Kayak Full of Ghosts, and -- most recently -- At the End of the World and Fascinating Fungi of New England. He has done fungal inventories in places as diverse as Nunavik, Belize, Western Samoa, Nantucket Island, East Greenland, Honduras, a meteorite crater in northern Quebec, and the summit of Mt. Greylock in western Massachusetts. His book Fascinating Fungi of New England is the first ever guide to New England mushrooms. He keeps a post office box in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
