Biography & Memoir History Local & Regional History
Ringing True by Bill Jackson traces 350 years of an Irish Quaker family whose bells of Trummery once rang across the midlands. Illustrated with rare images, the 2017 paperback blends biography and cultural history, charting the Bells’ migrations, recipes, and quiet influence on Irish life.
Jackson’s narrative speaks to adults and young adults curious about heritage, faith, and small-town resilience. From Cromwellian times to the modern farm, each chapter turns personal diaries into a wider story of identity and belonging.
This used copy shows light cover scuffing and faint marks inside the front cover, yet the pages are clean, un-dog-eared, and tightly bound. A smoke-free home has kept it fresh for the next reader.
Perfect for collectors of Irish history, family historians, or anyone named Bell seeking roots, Ringing True offers a ringing invitation to explore one clan’s enduring echo.
