Travel with the audacious, impulsive, vivacious Ian on his bicoastal tour of Ireland, taking in the whole expanse of the west coast and winding up somewhere that has a special place in his affections - Wexford. In his new book, Ian Middleton has compiled a Bord Failte-standard guide to some of Ireland´s best places and people. The story is illuminated by the crystal-clarity of Ian Middleton´s descriptive faculties, his razor-sharp sense of humour and zest for adventure.
´Hot Footing Around the Emerald Isle´ is one of the most vivid, forthright and replenishing books you will read this year. |
