Loved the 'sights!.......2005-02-22

On planning a trip to Ireland (return trip for me, first trip for my kids) I wanted to dig up as much info as possible.
With so little time (and money) I wanted the most of what I had!!
After securing the Eyewitness guides and the Frommers guides, I stumbled upon Insights and was so impressed!!
It not only was a guide, but a reading book as well.
The pictures by far are the best!!
Looking through it makes me want to be there on my trip, NOW!
Let's just say, I HAVE to own this one!!
It's costly, more than the others, but well worth putting into your collection!

Customer Reviews:

disappointing guide.......2007-09-27

I was at first very pleased to find a guide for Southwest Ireland where I am traveling this fall. When I recieved the book I immediately looked up the places I am going to and was not happy to see how little information there was about each place that was listed. The map is a good feature, but everything else is just too short on background information.

Very handy touring guide to Killarney and County Kerry.......2006-02-07

The Insight Pocket Guide to Southwest Ireland is a compact but highly informative touring guide to SW Ireland, the area south of the River Shannon and west of the City of Cork. This part of Ireland features magnificent sea coast scenary, mountains, historical sites, and gorgeous areas for touring by car or on foot. The Pocket Guide features several maps, including a foldout map suitable for driving, lots of photos, a short history of SW Ireland, and notes on what to look for in each town and area of interest.

Some of the major tourist favorites include Blarney Castle with its famous stone, just west of Cork; the old seaport of Kinsale; and Bantry House and Gardens on Bantry Bay. Don't miss the magnificent Dingle Peninsula, including the long beach at Inch, the ancient Christian Gallarus Oratory, and the beautiful Blasket Islands just offshore at the western tip of the Peninsula. The town of Killarney is centrally located in the area for lodging, shopping, and fine eating. Near Killarney is the magnificent Gap of Dunloe, suitable for a walking or biking trip, or even a ride by pony cart.

SW Ireland is a place to get off the main roads and explore. Each town and village has its own items of interest set amid stunning scenary. SW Ireland is an excellent destination for a vacation, and this guide is an excellent way to get find things once there.

Book Description

From a Victorian Garden is the first gardening book of its kind—a remarkable historical record and the point of departure for modern gardeners replicating the charms of a traditional turn-of-the-century garden for their own delight. Using period photographs and new full color photography together with material from journals and letters, this book remembers the magnificent Victorian garden of the Point Ellice House created more than a century ago by the O'Reilly family. It is here that Judge Peter O'Reilly and his wife Caroline and daughter Kathleen established a glorious floral landscape, perfectly maintained throughout the decades.

Horticulturally inspiring, and filled with wonderful photographs and rich, detailed text, this book takes readers step-by-step through the basics of their own heirloom gardens, to the more advanced concepts such as designing a welcoming driveway or laying a shrubbery border for year-round bloom. Bursting with ideas for gaining abundant pleasure from your own garden, From a Victorian Garden reveals one of the truly magnificent gardens of the past—still very much alive today.

Gold mine of information for designing a Victorian garden.......2007-07-02

This book is much more than a "how-to" book on Victorian gardening. It provides insight into Victorian daily family life. Anyone interested in Victorian life or gardening will find it fascinating. Anyone interested in restoring or creating a garden for a Victorian home should consider it essential reading. It has been extremely useful in planning a garden for our late 19th century house. As a lagniappe, the book's appendices provide a wealth of additional information on Victorian gardening and life. This is a great addition to gardening literature, especially since there is so little information available on designing a Victorian garden.

Wow! Fabulous book.......2007-05-30

This is an awesome book. I have started reading it, and can tell it will be a good summer read.

Incredible Book for Old House Gardeners.......2004-07-16

If you own a Victorian home, or are simply interested in Victorian gardens, this book is an amazing resource. From period advice on everything from walkways, to drives, to historical shrubs, this is truly the first book EVER (at least that I have found) to advise the American homeowner on practical gardening matters for old houses. Easy to read, with great pictures, From a Victorian Garden is a must for anyone interested in period gardening! I loved it!

from victorian to me.......2004-05-17

I read this book and was amazed at what I learned. It not only
told me about the way it used to be in the garden , but it also gave me so many ideas that I could use right now, in my own garden.
I would heartily recommend this book to anyone if you are interested in gardening or not.

Especially recommended for gardening and landscaping enthusiasts.......2005-10-14

The British Victorians were masters of geometrically formal nineteenth century gardening characterized by bright, elegant, seasonal bedding to create lush, exuberant outdoor spaces where they met, played, and dined. These were verdant landscapes enhanced with carpet beds, topiary, statuary, sundials, marble and stone walkways, as well as classical architectural ruins, fountains, and pools. In "Victorian Gardens", garden historian and expert Caroline Holmes showcases many restorations and recreations of Victorian gardens ranging from the Osborne House on the Isle of Wight (Queen Victoria's country home), to Biddulph Grange in Staffordshire, and Down House in Kent (which was home to Charles Darwin). More than two hundred beautiful color photographs, in addition to illustrations, diagrams, and layouts of restorations, provide the reader with a visual and intellectual perspective on the Victorian approach to estate gardening, landscaping, and outdoor beautification. Informed and informative, a joy to simple browse through, "Victorian Gardens" is especially recommended for gardening and landscaping enthusiasts, and would be a popular addition to any community library's Gardening resource and reference collection.

Book Description

The varied tastes of the Victorians extended to their gardens and landscapes, and Victorian Gardens describes the wide range of garden designs and planting styles that were created during Victoria's reign. The Victorians' inventiveness and enthusiasm for technology and industrial developments transformed professional British gardening into a sophisticated and skilled profession. Public parks, carpet bedding, kitchen gardens and glasshouse displays are only a few of the era's innovative horticultural contributions that are still enjoyed today. Many of today's gardeners are rediscovering the vibrant planting schemes popular over a century ago and we can learn much from the detailed plant lists and gardening instructions that are recorded in Victorian books and magazines.

This book made me turn to gardening and the art world. He is fantastic and I strongly ( emphasis on strongly)recommend buying his books including Victorian Cottages.

A Gorgeous fashion book.......2006-06-23

This is a gorgeous book: the costumes are photographed in full color with large reproductions. Cincinnati obviously has many wonderful pieces in its museum. There are 43 full color (or should I say colour, to go with the title) of costume. A few are details of a costume shown in another plate, otherwise the plates most often contain one, but sometimes 2 or 3 costumes. The pictures have brief captions with them, and more detailed information is included towards the end of the book. There are, in addition, more than 20 black and white historic illustrations.

This has a more substantial text than many similar works. The are separate chapters on "Acquiring a French Wardrobe", "The Fabric Scrapbooks of Hannah Ditzler Alspaugh, "Healthful, Artistic and Correct Dress". the bulk of the text is a review of fashion from 1837-1912. The text is happily divided into shorter time periods for a more detailed and meaningful discussion. This modern reader smiled at seeing the styles for 1866-1868 described as "severe", although of course, in context that makes sense. The divisions are not be a set scheme, but according to what the author deems best giving the flow of fashion.

There is much additional factual material: a list of abbreviations, a list of sources cited, notes, a glossary, a bibliography and a detailed index. Not only eye-candy, but a good research source.

I'm glad that I didn't wear, or worse, have to clean this kind of clothing, but as always for this period, the dresses are swooningly beautiful.

Karen Armstrong speaks to the troubling years following her decision to leave the life of a Roman Catholic nun and join the secular world in 1969. What makes this memoir especially fascinating is that Armstrong already wrote about this era once---only it was a disastrous book. It was too soon for her to understand how these dark, struggling years influenced her spiritual development, and she was too immature to protect herself from being be bullied by the publishing world. As a result, she agreed to portray herself only in as "positive and lively a light as possible"---a mandate that gave her permission to deny the truth of her pain and falsify her inner experience. The inspiration for this new approach comes from T. S. Eliot's Ash Wednesday, a series of six poems that speak to the process of spiritual recovery. Eliot metaphorically climbs a spiral staircase in these poems---turning again and again to what he does not want to see as he slowly makes progress toward the light. In revisiting her spiral climb out of her dark night of the soul, Armstrong gives readers a stunningly poignant account about the nature of spiritual growth. Upon leaving the convent, Armstrong grapples with the grief of her abandoned path and the uncertainty of her place in the world. On top of this angst, Armstrong spent years suffering from undiagnosed temporal lobe epilepsy, causing her to have frequent blackout lapses in memory and disturbing hallucinations---crippling symptoms that her psychiatrist adamantly attributed to Armstrong's denial of her femininity and sexuality. The details of this narrative may be specific to Armstrong's life, but the meanin! g she makes of her spiral ascent makes this a universally relevant story. All readers can glean inspiration from her insights into the nature of surrender and the possibilities of finding solace in the absence of hope. Armstrong shows us why spiritual wisdom is often a seasoned gift---no matter how much we strive for understanding, we can't force profound insights to occur simply because our publisher is waiting for them. With her elegant, humble and brave voice, she inspires readers to willingly turn our attention toward our false identities and vigilantly defended beliefs in order to better see the truth and vulnerability of our existence. Herein lies the staircase we can climb to enlightenment. --Gail Hudson

Book Description

In 1962, at age seventeen, Karen Armstrong entered a convent, eager to meet God. After seven brutally unhappy years as a nun, she left her order to pursue English literature at Oxford. But convent life had profoundly altered her, and coping with the outside world and her expiring faith proved to be excruciating. Her deep solitude and a terrifying illness–diagnosed only years later as epilepsy–marked her forever as an outsider. In her own mind she was a complete failure: as a nun, as an academic, and as a normal woman capable of intimacy. Her future seemed very much in question until she stumbled into comparative theology. What she found, in learning, thinking, and writing about other religions, was the ecstasy and transcendence she had never felt as a nun. Gripping, revelatory, and inspirational, The Spiral Staircase is an extraordinary account of an astonishing spiritual journey.

Inside the Mind of a Religious.......2007-08-25

I read the other reviews on this book, not because I wasn't going to buy it, but to see what others thought. Of course, I was going to buy it, after all this is Karen Armstrong we are talking about here. I am interested in what ever she thinks. I loved the book. I am always interested in stories about people overcoming difficulties. Karen Armstrong had to overcome a lot. It is interesting, to say the least, to know what the religous view of this writer actually is now after she's been through everything she's been through.

The book takes us with her on her spiritual and vocational journey. It answers the question of "Why did she write all those diverse books about God Anyway" I would recommend this book to anyone who in their own spiritual search is looking to see how someone else came through it and ended up apparently whole. This is a book I will keep. I find the last chapter especially captivating and I will need to review it until I can internalize what she is saying so beautifully.

An Engrossing Spiritual Autbiography.......2007-07-20

For those of us that have loved Karen Armstrong through her marvelous scholarly works, a glimpse into the experiences that shaped the scholar can be wonderful. In this book, Armstrong explores the experiences that brought her out of her religious disenchantment to become the fascinating, God-enamored woman that she is today. The pages are by turns heartbreaking, heartwarming and deeply profound. I strongly recommend this magnificent autobiography.

An honest revelation.......2007-06-02

Having read almost all of Karen Armstong's profoundly meaningfull studies I wondered how it all came about. This book provides a very honest insight into the sufferings of a young woman and the origin of her enduring search for the truth about so-called "revealed" religions

Facile and Dishonest.......2007-04-28

Ms. Armstrong has published a brace of well-edited, post-Christian titles. The Spiral Staircase is a sadly biased and one-sided slash against her Catholic roots. Those that have stood between Armstrong and her revisionist goals are poorly presented, while all who supported her are glorified--then are jettisoned in typical cameo fashion. Take, for example, Rebecca, the anorectic nun who stayed (long enough to provide Armstrong a nifty plot device, at least!). Poor emaciated Rebecca is used as a foil to revisit all that was horrific about that beastly convent. Then, when that part of Ms. Armstrong's life is no longer needed, Rebecca is entirely abandoned.

Given that this is the author's second version of the same post-convent events of an earlier book, how much of this text can be considered authentic? Will there be a definitive third title? Who will be the goat this time around? Be careful, it might well be you!! Ms. Armstrong is seemingly not responsible for her life, but many others are. Take care, all.

Ms. Armstrong has seemingly appeared in every other soft, non-offensive Unitarian project around, and she maintains an evangelical adherence to Catholic guilt trips for all moderate-to-orthodox Christians. Read her last dozen pages of this text, and witness her simplistic and absurd analysis for 9/11. She has abandoned her past, yet she claims absolute privaledge to speak for Christianity and monotheism. We are all one, and we should all think like Ms. Armstrong. Fundamentalist much?

A rewarding read; parts worth reading again.......2007-04-07

I have never read any of Karen Armstrong's books, but I have seen many references to her writings and have perused her books at the bookstore and found them interesting. I thought this might be a good book to begin with and I was not disappointed. She is an interesting woman who has opened herself and has shown all the darkest corners of her being in what I found to be a very matter-of-fact way. She certainly has enough baggage from a rather strange past, but I felt she was honest in dealing with her frustrations, her weaknesses, her mistakes, and her achievements. I do find her bitterness at the Catholic Church a bit much at times; surely there was someone in the convent or in her early Catholic life that was a positive influence. She can be a harsh judge of others, but I think she also judges herself harshly at times.
The last chapters of Spiral Staircase are especially interesting and worthy of going back to reread. I find her explanation of the paradox of the absent God and as she says "a presence in my life" insightful. Her analogy of ascending a spiral staircase and her spiritual journey is so apt. Ms. Armstrong has done for me something that I do not have the time, skill, or intellect to do and that is to step back from the boundaries of a very traditional religious upbringing and take a much larger view of this unnameable force in our lives that we so innocently and ineffectually call God.
I would also recommend The Seven Storey Mountain by the Trappist monk Thomas Merton (who is referred to in the last pages of Spiral Staircase). Thomas Merton's faith journey leads to the Catholic Church rather than away from it, but I believe the ultimate destination of both Merton and Armstrong are not that far from each other.

Great book!.......2000-09-13

This book was great and informative. Only one problem though. A vast majority of the pics were of Andrea! I mean, I think Andrea's great, and there'd be no band without her, but I think Jim, Sharon, and Caroline deserve some recognition too! Again, don't get me wrong, I love Andrea as much as the next Corrs fan, but there's just not enough pics of everyone else!!

Good book.......2000-06-26

This book contains a lot of pictures and information about the Corrs. How they grew up, got the recorddeal, etc. The only thing I criticize is that on about 95 % of the pictures, there's "just" Andrea Corr.

Corr-ific Book about the Corrs.......2000-02-12

This book is Corr-ific! Love the pictures of everyone in the book. I highly recomend this book to any fan of the Corrs. And remember the Corrs is with in you.

Good Book.......1999-11-01

A very good book about The Corrs! Many pictures of them and it explains all about them. It should be the official book or The Corrs!
