What makes the Celtic Spirit unique? With imaginative stories and poetry, Father William John Fitzgerald delves into the mystique underlying the legends and spirituality of Ireland and her people. He suggests that there are seven "secrets" and that we would do well to integrate some of the older Celtic Spirit into the rushed and busy lives we live in our Western consumer societies. As he reveals experiences of Celtic Spirit that have woven their way into his own personal life, he takes us on an unforgettable journey to the very soul of Ireland.
This is an enchanting book, a marvelous blend of information and personal experience. William Fitzgerald's Irish spirit sparkles amid his superb storytelling and boundless creativity. His adventurous journeys and insightful discoveries are woven beautifully through every page.

George Bernard Shaw said, "An Irishman's imagination never leaves him alone." Father Fitzgerald's imagination is clearly a second cousin to his craft. He writes like an angel and provides a masterful and poetic account of the Celtic spirit. His words light up a page and the reader is moved from fireworks to starlight over and over again. He has clearly inherited the spirit of storytelling.
