Through words and stunning images, the Emerald Isle is brought to life in this magnificent collection of 140 color photographs by some of Ireland's best landscape photographers and illuminating essays by archaeologist and writer Peter Harbison. From ancient standing stones and breathtaking pastoral scenes to energetic cities of architectural sophistication, we take a photographic tour reflecting the soul of this spectacular island. A brief history of Ireland puts the images into historical context: from ancient Celtic dolmens to abbeys and castles, from lush pastures, fields of heather, and seaside cliffs to formal gardens, and from ancient villages to the rush of contemporary Dublin.
