Wild Shores: The Magic of Ireland’s Coastline

20.00

Skirting islands, cliffs, beaches and shifting dunes, Wild Shores: The Magic of Ireland’s Coastline is a coastal journey that looks back at land from the sea. Ecologist Richard Nairn travels clockwise around Ireland by boat, on foot and occasionally by air, blending nature writing, history and science with personal field notes from a lifetime spent studying the coast. The result is a vivid portrait of wild places and the forces that shape them, wind, tide, geology and time, inviting readers to see Ireland’s shoreline with fresh attention and care.
