Ireland is a land of dramatic contrasts. From the wild beauty of Connaught's jagged coastline to the quiet charm of the leisurely River Shannon, the Emerald Isle entrances its visitors. Many of Ireland's most scenic spots are steeped in legend. Croagh Patrick, the holy mountain with a glittering quartzite cone, was supposedly climbed by Saint Patrick. Giant's Causeway, an amazing stepping-stone formation leading into the sea, is said to be the remains of a bridge for the giants to cross from Ireland to Scotland.Fro medieval island monasteries to the Georgian elegance of Dublin's squares, Ireland enjoys a wealth of architecture. Small, stone-built cottages nestle in to hillsides and ruined castles dominate mountain tops. Irish culture also has a timeless quality. Donkeys are still used as a means of transport, peat is still cut by hand and bars double up as general stores. In stunning photographs, this book celebrates a land of untamed beauty and friendly charm--Ireland.
