Birds of Ireland - Pocket Guides

Appletree Press, [

An unexpected facet of the Emerald Isle is revealed to the reader in this study of a unique environment on the westernmost edge of Europe. The limestone karst landscape of The Burren, its clints and grykes home to an enormous variety of plants and animals, is punctuated by wetland habitats and fringed with a rocky Atlantic coastline. For the dedicated botanist and tourist alike, it is the display of summer flora which is the highlight of The Burren's year. This title is a comprehensive and detailed study of an increasingly well known area of special interest. Gordon D'Arcy has provided a wealth of information in a straightforward and readable text. The geology, archaeology, ecology, agriculture and most vit ally the future of The Burren all come under D'Arcy's keen eye.

Gordon is back for more mayhem and mischief in the second book in the laugh-out-loud Gordon's Game series! __________ Gordon D'Arcy - the only kid at school with a Six Nations medal hidden under his pillow! Though helping Ireland to win the Grand Slam feels like it was just a dream. Now, he's been given a brand new challenge - the chance to play for Leinster. After learning so many lessons playing for Ireland - including how to make a complete eejit of himself in front of millions of people - fitting in at Leinster should be a breeze. Right? Unfortunately, not. After his first training session, he sees why the team is mocked for being 'soft' (those stories about players wearing fake tan? All true!). Now he knows why so many people from Leinster support Munster. But Gordon settles down to work under an inspiring coach named Joe Schmidt. Joe promises that, with hard work, discipline and a bit of self-belief, Leinster can win the European Cup. Maybe another dream can come true!
