Ireland Travel Guide
Castles, Ancient Sites, Coastal Wonders, and Hidden Gems of the Emerald Isle
A guide to Ireland's castles, ancient sites, coastline and smaller places, told through the history and legend attached to each.
About the book
Ireland Travel Guide takes a selective, story-led approach to the country. Rather than attempting a complete listing of attractions, it concentrates on places with a particular history or tradition behind them, and explains why they are worth the journey.
Its subjects include medieval castles and their ruins, prehistoric stone circles and monuments, holy wells and sites associated with Celtic mythology, and the towns and villages where music and local custom remain part of daily life. The Atlantic coast, with its cliffs, headlands and remote shorelines, features throughout.
The book is intended for first-time visitors planning a route, for returning travellers hoping to see more of the country, and for readers who simply enjoy Irish history and folklore from home.
