Biographies & Memoirs

Belfast Celtic -- the name of this illustrious club evokes proud memories of a succession of players, whose names will be fondly remembered by enthusiasts everywhere Hamill, Scott, Tully and McAlinden, to name a few. 
From its beginnings in 1891 until its untimely end in 1949, this great club, with its unrivalled support, triumphed again and again, accumulating a host of trophies. 
Irish League Champions fourteen times, Irish Cup winners eight times, City Cup winners eleven times, Gold Cup winners ten times, and a record 31 successive wins (1947/48) -- a remarkable achievement that stands today. 
This book documents not only their numerous great moments but also their times of disappointment, and brings alive characters, the like of whom will never be seen again. This comprehensive record of text and illustrations also makes an important contribution to the social history of the time.

This book by Ian Adamson is a fascinating survey of the unique historical and cultural heritage shared by all the people of Ulster. The publication of heritage - ironically coincided with the onset of the worst phase yet of Ulster's communal tradedy. Undaunted, Adamson continued, in books such as "The Indentity of Ulster" and "Bangor, Light of the World", to reiterate his belief in the common identity of the Ulster people - a belief which seemed quite at odds with the intensifying violence, and one which was certainly not being expounded by most of the academic establishment, who had remained strangley silent int eh midst of a communal bloodletting which had its roots in a clash over 'identities' and differing interpretations of history. Adamson's books, however, soon became 'required reading', for supporters and detractors alike, and even for participants in the polictical upheaval, especially those who were beginning to recoil from the devisiveness of outdated historical mythology. Indeed, there are many who would contend that Adamson's work, both directly and indirectly, has provided much of the impetus behind the current upsurge in Ulster's shared heritage. In this book, Admason brings his historical analysis up to date, and also, by detailing the impact Ulster settlers made on the birth of the United States of America and the vital contribution Ulster made to the regenteration of European Christianity in the Early Middle Ages, shows that Ulster's heritage is not confined to Ireland but has a much broader significance. More importantly, perhaps, The Ulster People offers, unlike many other interpretations of Irish history, a genuine hope for the future.
