This book contains an exciting collection of essays focusing on a variety of alternative performances happening in contemporary Ireland. While it highlights the particular representations of gay and lesbian identity it also brings to light how diversity has always been a part of Irish culture and is; in fact; shaping what it means to be Irish today.

SaulnierWhat can one say about some of the most beautiful ships that ever graced the ocean!The French Line prided itself on creating floating masterpieces and Mr. Millers book captures some of the best pictures of these ladies! One can close ones eyes and imagine being on the deck of the Normandie or the Ile de France for a trip...Enjoy and bravo. Mr. Miller!13 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Once again. a splendid job done by William MillerBy A CustomerOnce again. William Miller has put together an excellent volume regarding the history of ocean liners. this time those of the CGT. This latest release contains extraordinary bw photographs and text thoroughly covering the history of every magor CGT liner and most secondary ships from the Washington to the France (1961). Each article includes the specifications of each ship. construction locations. and major birth dates. Where available the current status of each ship is also included. This book makes excellent reading material. and is perfect for referencing. The photographs included. unlike those in many "typical" compilations. are rather rare- I dont believe I saw any of them until I read this work. In future. I hope Mr. Miller will continue writing these types of books. for their value to the ocean liner wnthusiast far exceeds that of the paper on which they are printed. Whats next? Only he knows. (But I would like to see "Picture History of Norddeutscher Lloyd" or "Picture History of HAPAG" soon)
