Ireland

All lovers of Ireland will enjoy this fantastic aerial trip over the green western outpost of Europe. The book offers readers hundreds of views over a sea of gentle hills and green meadows, desolate moors dotted with heather and gorse, and a jagged coastline tormented unceasingly by the ocean. It also reveals stone-built castles and fortresses, small towns clustering around their churches, turf-roofed farmhouses and whitewashed cottages, great country houses and monastic ruins.
The focus of this book is on the photography. Brief essays introduce galleries of exceptional photographs whose themes and captions reflect Ireland's rich variety. A perfect gift, this book brings together the country's natural beauties and its enchantment. Ireland
