Following the Irish coast in a clockwise direction, acclaimed ecologist Richard Nairn travels by boat, on foot and sometimes by air to visit the best remaining wild places, including islands, cliffs, beaches and dunes. The result is a unique mix of nature, history, science and a reflection on the author's personal experiences of exploring Ireland's coast. By viewing the Irish coastline from the sea, Richard gains a unique perspective on the island. And along the way, he recalls a lifetime spent studying nature.

Ireland is an island surrounded by ocean, with a high percentage of its population living in the coastal zone and has often been referred to as an "island nation". The importance of the coastal zone to Ireland is extremely high, given its economic value from tourism and recreation, fishing, aquaculture, renewable energy, ports and linked industries, as well as its environmental significance. Proximity to the sea has also profoundly influenced Ireland's history, culture and multiple identities. Although there are existing guides about Ireland's coastal geology, physical geography and landscapes, these are fragmented and mostly of a local nature. "Shorelines: The Coastal Atlas of Ireland" will aim to fill this gap by looking at the coastline of the entire island of Ireland as a whole, from the physical, human and environmental perspectives.The Atlas will contribute towards the dissemination and outreach of scientific knowledge about the coasts of Ireland and of the processes that are shaping them, to the broader public, government and decision makers. The Atlas is relevant globally, to all those that are interested in coastal matters and the work is not just about Ireland, but Ireland, as an analogue for many of the world's coasts.Visually stunning, accessible and an academic tour de force, this Atlas will resonate with everybody who has a connection to Ireland and anybody interested in the Irish coast.

'Irish Shores: A Journey Round the Rim of Ireland' tells the story of a hitchhike around the West of Ireland's coastline. It conjures up a picture of a pre-Celtic Tiger Ireland, reminding us that that was not really very long ago. This can act as a companion publication to Paul Clement's recent travel book, 'Wandering Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way', as it covers virtually the same route but a quarter of a century later - so making a wonderful snap-shot of Ireland before and after the Tiger!

David's third A to Z guide to the Northern Ireland coastline finds him travelling the entire length of the coast from Derry/Londonderry all the way to Newry, following in the footsteps of the Rev. Canon Hugh Forde who published Round the Coast of Northern Ireland in 1928. In "Round the Hidden Coast of Northern Ireland From A to Z" David Leslie returns to the land of his previous two books. This time David takes an orderly route around the entire coastline revisiting many of Forde's selections and supplementing this new guide with several of his own choices.Why "Hidden"?David has tried to pick out locations, people, stories and events that may have otherwise escaped the attention of the general public. There's a wart well, a dolmen not marked on maps, a once-famous honey industry, an organ powered by water, a top secret legacy from the Cold War, an award-winning viewpoint, a beach that can sing and a headland that sighs, a cabin lit by love and sunshine, a courthouse building that left one county for another, an ancient monument in a front garden, a tombolo, a disabled rocking stone, the story of the Belfast Bap, a deadly duel, a witchcraft trial, a secret garden, a narrow escape for a teenager, a cemetery without any bodies, a lost kingdom, a wood-working widow, a nineteenth century massacre, a costly error on the world's biggest ocean liner, an evergreen oak tree, a forgotten poet, a strangely-tolling bell, a boulder that flew with the flick of a finger and a squeeze gut and that's not all.The result is a book that tours the length of Northern Ireland's coast offering around a hundred or so destinations, many of which don't usually get a mention in the tourist guides.Also available from David Leslie: The Antrim Coast From A to ZThe Coasts of Down and Derry From A to Z
