Walking Across Ireland: From Dublin Bay to Galway Bay ,
Michael Fewer - This is the author's account of walking a 180-mile route
over mountains, across bogland, along canal and riverbanks and through towns
and villages from Dalkey in County Dublin to Ballyvaghan in County Clare. It
is an enthusiastic traveller's tale of discovery, a unique cross-sectional
view of a hidden Ireland. He weaves in and out between the natural world of
plants and wildlife and the human world of grand buildings, old ruins,
farms, pubs and houses.
