Madam, – I am currently writing a history of teaching in Ireland. I am anxious to speak with and/or interview working teachers and am particularly interested to meet those who have retired. This work will result, after publication, in the establishment of a national research archive into the history of teaching in Ireland based at Dublin City University.
I can be contacted at brendan.walsh@dcu.ie, tel: 01-7007118, or at the address below. – Yours, etc,
