Ireland - The
Autobiography
£3.00
Over the past hundred years, Ireland has undergone profound political, social & cultural changes. But one thing that has not changed is the Irish genius for observation & storytelling, invective & self-scrutiny.

Ireland: The Autobiography draws upon this genius to create a portrait of a century of Irish life through the words of the people who lived it.

Broadcaster & historian John Bowman has mined archives, diaries & memoirs to create a remarkably varied & delightfully readable mosaic of voices & perspectives. Ireland: The Autobiography is a brilliantly selected, wide-ranging & engrossing take on the last century of Irish life. It gives us a portrait of Ireland unlike anything we've read before.

This paperback book has 478 pages & measures: 19.7 x 12.8 x 3cm

Ireland

Perched on the north-western edge of Europe, Ireland, with its magnificent cliffs and mountains, rolling green hills and secluded rivers and bogs, is a place of legendary beauty. It is also a land with an extraordinary natural and human history. In this major new book, acclaimed nature writer Michael Viney reveals in clear, elegant language 'what is special about Ireland's natural fabric'. He describes its timeless ecosystem - an intricate balance of plants, animals, geology and climate - from its beginnings deep in the past when rivers of molten rock and enormous glaciers stripped the land bare. Demonstrating the immensely varied but fragile beauty of the island, he passionately argues that it must be cherished and protected, kept safe not only for the Irish but for the millions
who come to experience its gently wild places.
