With stunning photography, Kelly reveals a world filled with magical echoes of historic tradition and ancient legends. The treasury of sites visited includes the visionary tomb of Newgrange in the Boyne Valley, the Rock of Cashel, the Stone Circle of Dun Beacon, and the surreal landscape of the Clare Burren.
