ISBN: 9780500289310.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA visual trip through the Emerald Isle: an unparalleled portrayal of the rural beauty and charm of Ireland. Clusters of white cottages huddled between hills of an unbelievably rich green, villages of a single street, dazzling in their array of color washes and picturesque shop-fronts―such are the villages of Ireland, which to this day are living working communities.\n\nThe most beautiful of these villages are captured here in Christopher Fitz-Simon’s sensitive commentaries and Hugh Palmer’s evocative photographs. This is a journey full of rural gems, some famous, others less so. Here are the colored coastal villages of Cork, their vibrant houses sloping down to a sea that so many Irish people crossed to found other communities in America. Here too are the stunning medieval churches of Roscommon and Galway; and the villages of Antrim, standing ruggedly in defiance of the northern seas. 285 full-color photographs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames \u0026 Hudson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45254330187829,"sku":"ByrdShop_050028931X","price":28.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780500289310_d9ffbda1-ec19-4d94-b25e-55a0d748a789.jpg?v=1779957531","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-most-beautiful-villages-of-ireland-9780500289310","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
