Ireland holds a special place in people’s hearts – even for
many who haven’t been there. To some the appeal is its natural
beauty, to others it’s the history; to some it’s Ireland’s
lasting folk tradition, to others it even seems to be a mystical
place. Ireland: The Emerald Isle presents 150 outstanding
photographs celebrating the island’s most evocative and beautiful
places, whether in nature or man-made, from the miles of near empty
beaches to the Mourne Mountains in County Down, from the pretty
fishing towns of County Cork to Dublin’s elegant Georgian
streets. Featuring images from both the Republic of Ireland and
Northern Ireland, the book ranges widely across landscapes and
history, from rugged cliffs and rolling hills to mysterious stone
circles, magnificent cathedrals and ruined abbeys; and from
medieval forts and castles to grand Victorian follies and villages
abandoned during the Potato Famine. While some images such as the
striking basalt columns of the Giant’s Causeway may be familiar,
others you may know only from Game of Thrones and the Star Wars
films but never realized that they, too, were in Ireland. Presented
with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Ireland: The
Emerald Isle is a stunning collection of images celebrating the
island’s natural beauty, culture and history.
