Dréacht Gaeilge de The Last of the Name (Blackstaff 1986) a breacadh síos ó Charles McGlinchey (1861- 1954) agus in eagar ag Desmond Kavanagh agus Nollaig Mac Congail. Fiodóir agus táilliúr ba ea Charles McGlinchey agus cainteoir dúchais Gaeilge in aice le Cluain Maine in Inis Eoghain, i gContae Dhún na nGall. Tá cúntais suimiúla ann ar stair an cheantair agus blas láidir de Ghaeilge thraidisiúnta Inis Eoghain. Ceann eile de bheathaisnéisí tábhachtacha shochaí traidisiúnta na nGael.

A draft in Irish of The Last of the Name (Blackstaff 1986) taken down from Charles McGlinchey (1861-1954) and edited by Desmond Kavanagh and Nollaig Mac Congáil. Charles McGlinchey was a weaver and tailor and a native Irish speaker of Irish near Clonmany in Inishowen in County Donegal. The book contains interesting accounts of the local history and has a strong flavour of the traditional Irish of Inishowen. Yet another of the important biographies of Gaelic society.
