One of the most satisfying elements of being a freelance designer is the feedback you get for your efforts. Rushing to meet a deadline before last Christmas, there were times (at 3 in the morning!) when you ask yourself whether it is worth it. The second of Turtle Bunbury’s “Your History in a Book” series proved to be very rewarding indeed. When the subject for the book is one of Ireland’s most prominent public figures, it is very satisfying to read his fine testimonial.
“Turtle Bunbury was commissioned to write the history of the O’Leary family eight weeks before Christmas 2009. The book was thoroughly researched, well written and beautifully produced. For anyone who would like to have their family history researched and written, I whole-heartedly recommend Turtle Bunbury’s ‘Your History in a Book’.”

I was delighted to be commissioned by award-winning writer and historian, Turtle Bunbury, for his new “Your History in a Book” series. This series is, in his own words, “an innovative concept in family history and will make a fascinating and uplifting present for anyone interested in the past. Have you ever wondered what life was really like for your ancestors? How did your grandparents live? What was going on in their world? Imagine reaching for a book written exclusively about your family. A book filled with stories of your bloodline’s voyage through history, complete with family photographs and iconic images of world history.”
From a design perspective, it is also a pleasure to work on such finely focused and lovingly crafted works. Knowing that each book published in this series has the most limited of runs makes this a truly unique project and refreshingly different.
