Road to Mccarthy - Softcover
As a veteran traveller and nosy tourist, Peter McCarthy has long been intrigued that the emigrant Irish can be found in all corners of the globe. Determined to pin down mythical tales of his own clan history and pursue far-flund Irish connections to their illogical conclusions, he is thrust into a world wide adventure.

About the Author:
Pete McCarthy was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father. He is the writer and performer of many series for radio and television, including 'Desperately Seeking Something', 'Country Tracks' and 'Travelog', for which he has won the Travelex Award for Best TV Travel Writer. He is the author of the bestselling McCARTHY'S BAR.
Review:
Praise for McCARTHY'S BAR: 'McCarthy is a hilariously funny writer.' -- The Times 'McCarthy mines a rich seam of humour as he finds himself on the receiving end of some warm but unsophisticated hospitality. But then, he could probably make a phone book funny.' -- Independent on Sunday 'Don't panic - this is not the same story you hear from every tourist you meet...This book will make you laugh out loud through recognition and embarrassment.' -- Irish News 'One of the funniest writers around. If you were asked to choose an ideal travelling companion, you would put Pete McCarthy near the top of your list. But if he doesn't happen to be available, McCARTHY'S BAR is the next best thing.' -- Yorkshire Evening Post 'Hilarious, informed and intelligent...a wonderful debut. By the end, we, too, would like to move to Ireland.' -- Amazon.co.uk 'An engaging, evocative book. Four out of five stars.' -- Daily Mail
