Ireland is a country where time seems to stand still, where tubby, long-haired horses still draw wooden carts laden with peat, as they have done for the last ten centuries. This is Ireland, a country of islands and archipelagos anchored to time-honoured traditions, of small towns and pretty fishing villages, of moors and Celtic monuments.But it is also the island of many archaeological sites, monasteries surrounded by mystery, and of Dublin, the capital built on a human scale, which in recent years has expanded to become a cosmopolitan city without losing its character. This book is a collection of spectacular and original photographs, with both vast and detailed views, and with portraits of men and women from all corners of the island: the thousand faces of Ireland are immortalized in this book, in an itinerary that readers can follow in person, letting their imagination and emotions run free as they are swept up in the beauty of this land.
