He has established himself as one of the most prolific and energetic history writers in Ireland, publishing eleven books to date, including the bestselling Vanishing Ireland series.
Having grown up surrounded by old portraits and dusty books at Lisnavagh House, County Carlow, Turtle studied history at Trinity College Dublin before moving to Hong Kong where he became a travel writer. Returning to Ireland some years later, he was determined to bring Irish history to life for all those who felt the past was just a dull chronicle of dates, dates, dates.
His quest has led him to a succession of fascinating book titles, including the highly acclaimed Vanishing Ireland series, as well as to the History Festival of Ireland, which he co-founded.
Turtle is a well-known name on Irish television and radio, and a contributor to magazines such as The World of Interiors, Playboy and National Geographic Traveller. He is co-presenter of RTÉ’s ‘Genealogy Roadshow’, voice of Newstalk’s ‘Hidden Ireland’ series and the founder of Wistorical, an innovative concept for promoting Irish history globally through social media.
Turtle lives on the family estate in County Carlow with his wife Ally and their two daughters, Jemima Meike and Bay Hermione.visualizza meno
