les plus beaux villages d'irlande

by Christopher Fitz-Simon, Hugh Palmer (Photograph), Marie Chantal Leveque (Translator)

Cet ouvrage a pour intention de révéler la merveilleuse diversité des quatre provinces de l'Irlande (Ulster, Leinster, Connacht et Munster), à travers leurs plus beaux villages, qui ont été choisis, à la fois pour leur beauté intrinsèque et pour le rôle qu'ils ont joué dans l'histoire et dans la culture irlandaise. A côté des villages traditionnels aux chaumières blanchies à la chaux, on découvrira le Manoir de Castle Leslie, les dolmens de Poulnabron, le château de Powerscourt, le Monastère d'Adare ou le château de Lismore.

A beautiful book full of photos that make me want to move to Ireland even more than I already do now.

The Ireland version was set up a little differently than the others. It divided the country up into fourths, and then introduced a different topic at the end of each section: such as old celts. Enjoyable.
