I really enjoyed reading this book about Ireland. It was very fun to learn all about the different things and the history of Ireland. I definitely would recommend this book to others as you can learn a lot from this. The information was very helpful and knowledgeable to someone that doesn't know anything about Ireland. The maps in this book are very cool.

If you're planning a trip to Ireland, this is a FABULOUS guide! You'll find information on everything from hotels to walking tours, to how to prevent getting sick overseas. I'm going to read it again when we're actually planning a trip.

Just starting to plan a trip sometime....
I like how the "dummnies" books are set up. Lots of general information, history in addition to specific area information.

I zoomed through this book today. So incredibly helpful, especially for a "dummy" when it comes to Irish culture. Even more excited for my trip to Ireland this summer!!
