Windings of the Moy: With Skreen and Tireragh

"The Windings of the Moy: With Skreen and Tireragh" is an evocative historical and topographical survey of the regions surrounding one of Ireland's most celebrated waterways. Written with a keen eye for both natural beauty and cultural heritage, this work by Rev. James Greer chronicles the landscape, antiquities, and social history of the baronies of Skreen and Tireragh in North Connacht. The narrative follows the course of the River Moy, providing a detailed account of the areas it touches as it flows through the counties of Mayo and Sligo.

The text blends local lore with historical facts, offering readers insights into the ancient ecclesiastical sites, noble families, and significant landmarks that define the region. From the salmon-rich waters of the Moy to the rugged coastal beauty of the Sligo shoreline, Greer captures the unique character of the West of Ireland. The work serves as both a scholarly record and a tribute to the enduring traditions and picturesque vistas of the Irish countryside.

Ideal for historians, genealogists, and enthusiasts of Irish regional studies, "The Windings of the Moy" remains a valuable resource for understanding the local identity and historical depth of this storied landscape. Its descriptive passages and preservation of local memory offer a fascinating window into the past for any reader interested in the heritage of Ireland.
