Our volume "Canada and the Great Irish Famine" is coming along: we now have a cover and a set of typeset proofs!

Happy St Patrick’s Day / Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh go léir! A great evening of talks at @irishclassical.bsky.social, a much-cherished institution in #BuffaloNY, followed by the customary beef on weck, wings, and “a few scoops” at "The Place", one of the city's oldest taverns. #irishamerica
