Daniel’s level of professionalism and commitment greatly helped us in the production of ‘Clondegad – An Irish Heritage Guide’. Once the project outline was decided, Daniel took full control and managed the creative design, editorial and final production stages with a fine balance of expert professionalism and active listening, always keeping the project goals, project quality and customer needs in focus.

Daniel McCarthy couples an impressive range of references with a tangible sense of place in his 2000 dissertation on County Clare in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The same strengths, namely breadth of knowledge and imaginative engagement, inform his work on sport history, notably ‘Citizen Cusack and Clare’s Gaelic Games’ . Here he shows a thorough familiarity with institutional history and the many shades of green that made up the early G.A.A. enlivened by folkloric and literary references.

As a Board member of the Irish Heritage Foundation of Gettysburg, I contracted with Daniel McCarthy, owner of the Boru Cultural Enterprises to provide the the Burren Display for the Adams County Irish Festival. His work was very precise and the transaction handled easily and timely. I highly recommend his work to others and would not hesitate to use his services in the future.
