You are right it is unusual connection, but when you examine ukulele, you will find, it is completely determined for Irish music. It has a similar range like a whistle or a bagpipe. You can play either melody with whistle, fiddle and tenor banjo or accompaniment together with a guitar. As the ukulele is tuned high, we will use it in Irish music as a melodic instrument. Vast majority of this book is dedicated to this, where Irish tunes are transcribed in tablatures.
