Decorative Patterns from Italy china Historian Mark McGowan delves beneath

Historian Mark McGowan delves beneath the surface of statistics and brings to light the stories of men and women who had to face a desperate choice: almost certain death from starvation in Ireland

Many of these accessories were originally received as gifts on all kinds of occasions and for all kinds of reasons: a souvenir from a distant country sent to the family back home

which could not keep out the cold when wet

when there was an outburst of innovation and originality in print design
