This special publication presents an in-depth awareness of the island of Achill, its heritage, its spirit, its physical wonder and its magical light and seas. The book brings together two acknowledged masters in their individual arts, poetry and painting, and is a tribute to the island close to their hearts, where every grain of sand whispers a story. "A beautifully elegant volume from beginning to end, Achill: The Island is unreservedly recommended."--MWBR
