Achillbeg

One of Ireland's most scenic roads skirts the southern side of the Corraun Peninsula in County Mayo, giving breathtaking views of Clew Bay and Clare Island. Travelling towards Darby's Point from the Mulrany direction, a view of the southern end of Achill Island will launch into view as you near the point. Just to the left of this, two low hills may be seen with a small secluded beach in between - at first glance it is another part of Achill Island to the uninitiated, but a closer look reveals that these two hills are separated from the rest of Achill by a narrow channel, the Blind Sound. This book is the first study of this beautiful island, and has been painstakingly researched using the memories of former residents as the primary source It is to A5 format with a laminated card cover with square-backed spine and consists of 208 pages with 180 illustrations.
