Discover the history of Ireland through maps From early maps of the
Emerald Isle to modern day, Ireland has evolved rapidly – along
with the ways in which it has been mapped. Cartography has not only
kept pace with these changes, but has often driven them. Explore
Ireland’s fascinating history with this stunning volume of over
100 maps. Combining the artistic world of early cartography with
modern computerised surveys, this is a beautiful and unique
addition to any map- or history-lover’s collection. Irish author
and historian Pat Liddy produces an invaluable history of Ireland
and its relationship with its neighbours, and indeed, the world.
