Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In a fast-paced, modern Ireland it can be difficult to imagine how different our lives are to those that went before.

Discover a time when people were much more tuned into the rhythm of the year and the ground beneath their feet, when they made much of their own furniture and clothes, and fed themselves from their own land.
