5.0 out of 5 stars
Not only a study of language, but a rich source of tradition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ireland of the Proverb (Paperback)
This book offers a collection of words and photographs to illustrate Irish wisdom as passed from generation to generation. Two sides to every story, every cloud has a silver lining, these are just the "nutshells," that have survived into contempory times. Here one is exposed to the origins. The photographs compliment beautifully the selections and portray a country, and a people that seem only slightly touched by the twentieth century, as we prepare for the twenty-first. The original Gaelic language is not only music for the ears, but in this text provides a feast for the eyes as well. There is much to be learned in this book and I highly recommend it to students of life.
