Ireland, the Emerald Isle, is famous for its checkerboard landscape
of green fields and hedgerows. Its coast showcases sandy beaches,
mudflats and saltmarshes, Atlantic Rainforests, rocky shores and
cliffs, all home to a staggering variety of wildlife. Ireland's
coastal waters are among the best in Europe to see whales and
dolphins and other rare marine animals. The Crossbill Guide Ireland
is the authoritative wildlife and nature travel guidebook to that
island and includes both the Republic of Ireland and Northern
Ireland. The book provides insights into how this varied landscape
came into being with a description of its flora and fauna. The book
combines this background with carefully selected hiking and driving
routes that cover the best places to discover Ireland's wildlife
and ecosystems. If you want to explore Ireland's wild side, this is
the book you need.

Ireland on Ireland's Coast
It is a small area of land and yet the nine counties of Ireland's
north hold within them a bewildering variety of riches and rewards.
It is a complex region of proud and busy cities, of long, empty
beaches, of formidable glens and rich farmland, of towering cliffs
and yielding hills. This is the land that St Patrick walked and
Heaney celebrated. Ireland's Beautiful North is an introduction to
Ulster, featuring a selection of the sights and places that go to
make this province a place of such constant fascination, from the
awesome geology of the Giant's Causeway to the waves that break on
the soft sands of the Atlantic seaboard, from the murals of Belfast
to the churches of Armagh and the ancient remains of Navan Fort,
from the Fermanagh and Cavan lakelands to the Glens of Antrim and
the Mourne Mountains.
In Ireland you are never far away from the border between land and
sea and the coast is an integral part of the country. It is a place
of natural beauty and vibrant history. Carsten Krieger takes the
reader, chapter by chapter, through a virtual tour of each region
of Ireland's coastline, with photograph after photograph of
Ireland's hidden gems. Ireland's Coast is a visual celebration,
which showcases Ireland's landscape, wildlife and people,
interspersed with stories and anecdotes compiled over two years of
travel. The result is a unique collection of images of Ireland's
coast in all its splendour.
