The Coastal Atlas of Ireland
The Coastal Atlas of Ireland is a celebration of Ireland’s coastal and marine spaces. Drawing on written contributions from over 100 authors from across the island of Ireland and beyond, the Atlas takes an explicitly all-island approach; though the work has a much wider relevance and potential reader interest.
It is organised into six sections, comprising a total of 33 chapters. They take the reader from the distant geological past, by way of the prehistoric era and a focus on the island’s physical environments, through time and the human colonisation of Ireland, to the complex cultural and economic landscapes of the near past and the present day.
This is a truly impressive and monumental effort. This beautiful book makes the perfect gift for all interested in our seas and coasts.
