Yeats and nearly sixty others share their adventures and impressions. You will hear from the filmmaker documenting life on Aran, the German prince looking for a rich bride, and the American missionary distributing Bibles on the eve of the Famine. They take the reader on a journey through all parts of the county – from Galway City to the Aran Islands, from Connemara to East Galway. The accounts are vividly illustrated with antique maps, historical photographs and rare illustrations.
