Book synopsis

The Ring of Kerry is the Kerry tourist trail and part of the magical and unspoilt region of Ireland that has attracted visitors for hundreds of years. This book explores postcards of tourists one hundred years ago and their engagement with such scenic landscapes. The Ring of Kerry provides an amazing insight into the ancient heritage of Ireland - with Iron Age Forts, Ogham Stones, Old Monasteries, and lakescapes, and a landscape carved out of rock by the last Ice Age 10,000 years ago. One of the most famous and popular road circuits for tourists in the South West of Ireland, the Ring of Kerry, traverses the coastline of the Iveragh Peninsula, with a great many tourist sites along the way from Killarney's lakes to Waterville's coast. This is a wild and remote region. Along the coast are picturesque little towns such as Sneem, Caherdaniel and Waterville. Kenmare Bay to the South, Dingle Bay in the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the west surround this peninsula which boasts 75 miles of beaches.
