Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mícheál Ó Dubhshláine was Principal of Dún Chaoin National School in County Kerry, Ireland, from 1970 to 2003. During that period he published several books pertaining to Kerry and to the Blasket Islands in particular, but as a native of Kilkea in County Kildare, he never lost interest in his people, their history and folklore. He began work on Are You Going Home Now? in the early 1990s which concluded with his untimely death in 2006. What is clear from this book is that every corner of Ireland has its own worthwhile history and story to tell. All it takes is for someone like Mícheál with a passionate love and respect for one’s native place to garner and harness that information so that it can then be available for the local community to enjoy and for the wider world to digest and appreciate.
