Beschreibung
In An Irishman Abroad, Tarka King recalls his feral youth on the periphery of the Anglo-Irish world, his brief UK public school education and a period of extensive travel, followed by a period of soldiering in the Middle East at the height of the Cold War before returning to Ireland. The book identifies the pre-Belfast Good Friday Agreement Ulster Canal project as a way of tackling historic regional socio-economic ills, with supporting opinions from wide range of contacts stretching from senior IRA hunger strikers through to dedicated hardline Unionists. King reflects on how he felt compelled to move to England due to the unrest in the early 1980s and how management of his farm and forests in 'no-man's-land' was not surrendered and his interest in pursuing the Ulster Canal restoration continues.

Über den Autor
Tarka Kingleft Ireland for Dorset forty years ago due to 'the Troubles' but retained ownership of his mid-Ulster border farm and forest. While continuing to manage his property from a distance he has travelled extensively and developed an interest in seeing the restoration of the derelict Ulster Canal become a reality.
