This wonderful book contains many fantastic, atmospheric photographs that precisely represent the tone and "feel" of a novel I'm currently writing. The sweeping scenery of beautiful Ireland, wreathed in mist and ancient mystery, provides marvelous inspiration for a writer. The inspiration I've received from this book so far in writing my own story is beyond expression, and I already owe it a great debt.
