The Whispering Land : Myths, Legends and Lore from the Wild Atlantic Way by Carsten Krieger (Large Paperback) ✓ In Stock

Ireland’s landscape is steeped in folklore and history, and the untamed Atlantic seaboard is no exception. Stretching from the Inishowen Peninsula in Donegal to Kinsale in Cork, the Wild Atlantic Way encompasses 2,500 kilometres of spectacular coastline and a wealth of folk tales passed down through generations. This book immerses us in the wild beauty of Ireland’s western periphery, seeks out these stories and explores their origins. Renowned landscape photographer Carsten Krieger has traversed and captured Ireland’s verdant terrain for over twenty years. In this time, he has imbibed the geology, history and heritage of the island he now calls home. On his journey to create this book, he has retraced his steps, listening to the echoes of the past and looking with fresh eyes to unearth ancient legends and myths. While some of the places, stories and events in this book may be familiar, this is the first time they are presented in this way: a beguiling combination of photography, folklore and history. Through the eyes of a curious photographer, the already enchanting landscape is imbued with a touch of magic. The result is a captivating new perspective on the Wild Atlantic Way and its stories.

Fake Heroes : Ten False Icons and How they Altered the Course of History by Otto English (Paperback) ✓ In Stock

From the author of bestseller Fake History, Otto English, comes a shocking yet hilarious look at ten of the greatest liars in history. Whether it's virtuous leaders in just wars, martyrs sacrificing all for a cause, or innovators changing the world for the better, down the centuries supposedly great men and women have risen to become household names, saints and heroes. But just how deserving are they of their reputation? Exploring everything from Captain Scott's reckless hunt for glory to Coco Chanel's murky Nazi past, Otto English turns his attention to some of history's biggest (and most beloved) figures, bringing to light the darker truths that they would rather have kept buried away, while also celebrating the unsung heroes. Fake Heroes exposes the truths of the past and helps us understand why they matter today. 'A fascinating mixture of subjects and lots of offbeat information... Eye-opening.' Andrew Lownie 'A brilliant book.' James O'Brien
