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.
