“The scenic beauties of Connemara, Killarney or the coastline of Donegal may speak for themselves to the tourist, though the student of geology will certainly want to understand the mechanics of their poetry. The strength of Dr. Whittow’s new survey is that it adds fascination to any journey made in the least spoiled of the British Isles.” (blurb inside cover)
