This book records the experience of several lengthy visits
paid by the author to Inishmaan and Aranmor, the chief islands
of the Aran group. He gives an intimate account of the general
manner of life on these islands, so isolated from
civilisation, where the life is in some ways the most
primitive that is left in Western Europe.

rocks, cried over by the gulls, among the passionate, strange
people whose ways are described here, with so tender a
charity.--_Daily News_.
