Husband and wife team Christi Daugherty and Jack Jewers have
been exploring Ireland together for years. Christi has been writing
Frommer''s Ireland since 2006, and Jack has been her co-author since
2009. Christi has also contributed to several other Frommer''s
guides, including MTV Ireland and MTV Europe, and she authored the

their blood. Jack grew up listening to his great aunt''s tales of
life in Dublin during the civil war she once leaned out of a
window during a late-night gunfi ght to tell them to keep the noise
down—people were trying to sleep, while Christi not long ago
discovered the ruins of the castle her family left behind when they
fled County Donegal in the 18th century, with the English hot on
their tail. Read more about the authors at
