'Just a few words to say that this is a delightful read. A very personal journal during his solo sail along the southerly coast of Ireland. Granted that because it was written in 1978 one shouldn't rely on it as a travel guide, but he does call out castles and holy wells that you won't find in mainstream guides. Much more than that though are his accounts of pub chats, historical backgrounders, a bit of philosophy, and amusing observations. There is something in this for sailors, travelers, Irish history buffs and anyone who appreciates good writing.' - Patti
Edition Description
Revised edition
Synopsis
Cork, the largest county in Ireland, has hundreds of miles of indented coastline, which is regarded as one of the scenic jewels of the country. John M. Feehan sailed alone in a small boat around the West Cork coast in search of true peace, his 'land of heart's desire', his 'isle of the blest'. The result is a book that is not only a profound spiritual odyssey but a magnificent account of the wild rugged coastline, the peaceful coves and the unique characters he met in this beautiful, unspoiled corner of Ireland. John M. Feehan writes with great charm, skill and sympathy, and with a mischievous roguish humour, often at his own expense. His sharp eye misses nothing. He sees the mystery, beauty and wonder in ordinary things, and brings situations and people vividly to life., Cork, the largest county in Ireland, has hundreds of miles of indented coastline, which is regarded as one of the scenic jewels of the country.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
