description: This volume offers a reasoned critical account of a wide range of travel writing about rural Ireland. The focus is on work by English travellers, from the 'scenic tourists' of the post-Romantic period to Eric Newby in the 1980s. Ryle also discusses accounts by American and English anthropologists, as well as writing by Irish authors including J. M. Synge, George Moore, Sean O'Faolain and Colm Toibin.
