Perched on the north-western edge of Europe, Irel&, with its magnificent cliffs & mountains, rolling green hills & secluded rivers & bogs, is a place of legendary beauty.

Product Description

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
