| Publisher Description: Following up on the success of his previous book, Ireland -- Our Ireland Home, Kevin Dwyer now explores in photographs the beauty and history of Ireland's inner waterways. Here they are as never seen before. In these magnificent, full-color photographs, you sense the mood and atmosphere of Ireland's rivers, lakes, and canals. The book is the story of a journey from St. Mullin's Lock, near New Ross, Co. Wexford, through the heart of Ireland and up to Belleek in Co. Fermanagh, a journey of approximately 300 miles. Dwyer had a look at the adjoining waterways on his main journey and shows the beauty and tranquility of the Lee Navigation, the Munster Blackwater Navigation, the Barrow Navigation, the Grand Canal, the Royal Canal, the Shannon Navigation and its lakes, the Shannon/Erme Waterway, and the Erme Waterway. Not only are you taken on a journey on the waterways, but also through the countryside, villages, and towns of Ireland. This is a timeless tribute to the beauty of Ireland. |
