Rambles in the West of Ireland

A memorable account of travelling by bicycle around Ireland. William Blufin takes us to a magnificent part of Ireland where all the loveliness, freshness, beauty, grandeur of the countryside bursts into view. The scenery is splendid and you will not be able to keep your hold on the present while you are there as your thoughts will be far away when you visit the woods and travel the white winding roads made cool even on the hottest day by the shade of the flower-laden hedges.

You will see hay-making and turf-cutting, and enjoy a glass of milk and a chat with the old people across their half-doors or on a stool beside the hearth. You will be welcomed on your travels by the children at the cross-roads and discover the simple and beautiful life of rural Ireland. If you delight in visiting the historic sites in the west of Ireland and on the banks of the Shannon then this book is definitely for you.
