“Barry apart from being a very hard working constituency MLA is also a man with a great sense of humour and his book reflects both sides of his character.
“The book comprises stories about his life including his involvement in politics and his love of the GAA as well as anecdotal stories of his life during the conflict.
“I would call on people to come along for a night of craic and meet Barry over a cup of tea or coffee and listen about his life in politics.”
