Miscellany50 celebrates fifty years of Sunday Miscellany, RTÉ Radio 1's iconic weekly arts programme.

“A sweet, alphabetical handbook to all things green.” —The New York Post Do you know a folly from a ha-ha? Can an allée be pleached? Does a skep belong on a plinth? Answers to these questions—plus a gazebo-ful of information, stories, and visual delights—await in this charming exploration of the stuff gardens are made of. Garden historian Suzanne Staubach covers everything from arbors to water features, reveling in the anecdotes that accompany each element. Filled with revelations and fanciful illustrations by Julia Yellow, A Garden Miscellany promises new discoveries with each reading—a book to be returned to again and again.

This collection of writing originates from All-Ireland Sundays as heard on Sunday Miscellany over the last decade. This selection captures the emotional magic of how the games connect with the joy and despair of this unique Irish experience. Each piece was written with a desire to communicate that something which makes 'September Sundays' so special. The collection recalls many of the great matches of the last 100 years from Croke Park, as well as more recent unforgettable clashes.
