Illustrated with 216 superb colour photography by John Hayward. Gordon D'Arcy has provided a wealth of information in a straightforward and highly readable text further illustrated with maps, tables, charts and diagrams. The geology, archaelogy, ecology, agriculture and most vitally the future of The Burren all come under D'Arcy's keen eye. An unexpected facet of the Emerald Isle is revealed to the reader in this new study of a unique environment on the westernmost edge of Europe. The limestone karst landscape of The Burren, its clints and grykes home to an enormous variety of plants and annimals, is punctuated by wetland habitatsb and fringed with a rocky Atlantic coastline. For the dedicated botanist and tourist alike, it is the display of summer flora which is the highlight of The Burren's year - one of the truly remarkable natural sights to be found in Western Europe says author Gordon D'Arcy.
