Opis

Ireland. An introduction to the matchless Irish experience of hospitality and good times, strength in adversity, spiritual intelligence when none might be expected, and a vibrant culture millions share, and millions more long for. Travel to Ireland in this book and come home with memories, or take it along and use it as a cultural compass to the Emerald Isle. Ireland Explained takes readers on a very personal trip around the Emerald Isle, with stops at interesting venues from Georgian homes to nouvelle cuisine restaurants--indeed, to one of the first ones in Ireland when it opened in the early 1980s. Visit castles, and tromp over open farmland. Look toward America from the west coast tracks; look toward Europe from cosmopolitan Dublin. You'll meet some people, too. Real characters. Real movers and shakers. And just about every other sort of person you can think of, from barkeeps to professors. Tuck this book in your suitcase and write your own annotations. Or read it in front of the fire at home, creating dreams or planning a trip of your own. However you do it, reading this book will provide you with a leisurely trip through one of the most beloved travel destinations on the planet, both exotic and familiar, homey and sublime. Beautiful, vexatious, vibrant, laugh-loving uplifting Ireland is what you'll find in the gentle prose of these pages, all of them written with love.
