Few authors make me smile.  Fewer authors make me laugh.  Will Fergusons are few and far between.  The Canadian (Calgarian) has kept me captivated since I picked up 'I Was a Teenage Katima-Victim'.  Through to this book 'Beyond Belfast'  there is a keen ear for the eye. 

Ferguson writes like a narrator should (think Stephen Leacock (and yes Ferguson has won that humour award (for obvious reasons)).  You join him on his epic journey (walking through the endless bogs, and meeting a calvalcade of characters that put Northern Ireland in perspective).

 

If you don't like the book, shame on you and your shallow sense of enjoyment.
