Connemara by Tim Robinson
Connemara is a singular region ill-defined geographically, and yet
unmistakably a place apart from the rest of Ireland. Tim Robinson,
author of the two-volume Stones of Aran, moved from Aran to
Connemara nearly twenty years ago. This book is the result of his
extraordinary engagement with the mountains, bogs and
shorelines of the region, and with its folklore and its often terrible
history: a work as beautiful and surprising as the place it attempts
to describe.
