This is the only book we can find with the name 'Galtymore' in the title. Apart, of course, from the many books that
mention Galtymore, Galtee More and the Galtees in the context of
walking, hiking and climbing. Perhaps this better qualifies under
the Galtymore Dogs category but we simply could not pass up the
opportunity of another web page.
The Grey Dog from Galtymore was written by Joseph E,
Chipperfield in 1961. Apparently, Chipperfield was the
pseudonym of John Eland Craig a prolific author who wrote many books
on a dog related theme. He also wrote a highly regarded book in 1956
on the Titanic called The Story of a Great Ship; The Birth and
Death of the Titanic Steamer
Little information is available about Joseph E Chipperfield and
any such information would be most welcome. It is not known if he
had any connection with Ireland or Galtymore. Perhaps he heard
friends talk of hikes in the great mountain and was captivated
by the name. This is one of the uses of the name that seems to be
derived directly from the Mountain rather than indirectly from the
racehorse's name.
We look forward to being bombarded with book titles that
mention the famous mountain peak.
