Gene is the co-author of 10 Rick Steves books. For this book, he wrote material on Ireland’s art, history, literature, and contemporary culture. When not traveling, Gene enjoys composing music, recovering from his 1973 trip to Europe with Rick, and living everyday life with his daughter.
Thanks to Rozanne Stringer for her writing on the Celts, the Celtic Tiger, St. Brendan, and Irish art. Thanks also to Mike Kelly for his help.
