Very informative and fun to read. Many good photos.

A very comprehensive, informative book. I had seen it in Ireland, but didn't want to carry it home. I was so happy it find it here on Amazon. The information is well presented, probably more than most people need, but it is all there. Great illustrations.

This is THE BEST book I have read about the Boyne Valley. It makes the landscape come alive. You should read it, and enjoy the photos, maps and descriptions before and after a trip there.

Outstanding historical book for this area. Beautiful photos and illustrations. A great bargin to buy throughAmazon.

The book arrived from the seller in exceptionally speedy fashion; however, there is a rip on the rear cover that was not mentioned in the description - although it doesn't really bother me, i would have preferred that this was included to give me an accurate picture of the state of the book.The contents of the book are marvellous; we travel a lot to the Brú na Bóinne and Meath and the book deals nicely with the exceptional history of this World Heritage Area.

A beautiful book that combines research with information. A great addition to anyone's bookshelves!
