The Aran Islands

The Aran Islands of Aranmor, Inishmaan, and Inishere lie thirty miles from Galway, and so attracted J.M.Synge that he returned to them time and time again. He here recounts his travels and encounters on the islands, telling of magic wells, poteen drinkers, fishing expeditions in currachs, and
stories of druids and fairies. The book includes fourteen of Synge's own photographs, depicting many fascinating aspects of island life.
