Description: A resident of Roundstone for a number of years, in his latest book Robinson concentrates on the coastal area around the town built by Alexander Nimmo, and the hinterland stretching to the Twelve Pins and beyond. He conveys information on the geology, botany and topography of Connemara, but undoubtedly his encounters with characters, both past and present, are what enliven the narrative.
