It was witness to some of the most important events of the civil rights movement and the Troubles. Derry City examines Catholic Derry from the turn of the twentieth century to the end of the 1960s and the start of the Troubles. Plotting the relationships between community memory and historic change, Margo Shea provides a rich and nuanced account of the cultural, political, and social history of Derry using archival research, oral histories, landscape analysis, and public discourse. Looking through the lens of the memories Catholics cultivated and nurtured as well as those they contested, she illuminates Derry’s Catholics’ understandings of themselves and their Irish cultural and political identities through the decades that saw Home Rule, Partition, and four significant political redistricting schemes designed to maintain unionist political majorities in the largely Catholic University of Notre Dame and nationalist city. Shea weaves local history sources, community folklore, and political discourse together to Press 9780268107932 demonstrate how people maintain their agency in the midst of political and cultural conflict. As a result, the Pub Date: 6/25/20 book invites a reconsideration of the genesis of the Troubles and reframes discussions of the “problem” of Irish $55.00 USD memory.

  • Sierra Madre's Chase Rettig Signs with the Green Bay
    SATURDAY, MAY 17, 2014 VOLUME 8 NO. 20 SIERRA MADRE’S CHASE RETTIG SIGNS WITH THE GREEN BAY PACKERS On Saturday, May 10th, long time Sierra Madre resident Chase Rettig took one step closer to fulfilling his dream of being an NFL Quarterback. He signed a rookie contract to play quarterback for the Green Bay Packers. Chase is the son of Mark and Carol Rettig, and along with his brothers Riley and Hayden grew up in Sierra Madre, and will always call it his hometown. He was just a normal Sierra Madre kid who loved playing baseball at Heasely and Dapper, hanging out in Kersting Court and to this day still looks forward to competing with family and friends for the biggest catch at Hunk Finn Day. Whenever back in town, you can catch Chase visiting teachers and friends at St. Rita, or taking in his cousin’s Sierra Madre Little League games or stopping by the Bottle Shop to catch up with great friends. Chase spent the last four years as the starting quarterback at Boston College. When his college career ended he held the longest current consecutive start streak of any college quarterback in the nation, and started a total of 46 games for the BC Eagles. His durability at the position was remarkable, considering the less than perfect conditions he endured throughout his career at Boston College. He was one of the only stable pillars at BC where he played for five offensive Photo courtesy Boston College legendary and current head coach Randy Davies, and helped lead the Raiders to the Los Angeles CYO Championship Game back in 2006.
