The "Country Series" aims to combine photographs with light, but authoritative commentary on the chosen themes, which cover art, architecture, travel, local history, the countryside, topography, gardens and rural life. New in paperback, this photographed survey chronicles the appeal and charm of the cottage in Ireland. Photographs capture these simple structures, often in wild and spectactular settings, in all their variety and elemental beauty. Alice Taylor's foreword paints a moving portrait of traditional cottage life, while the main text offers an analysis of a peculiarly evocative idiom.
