Excerpt from Scenery and Geology in County Antrim As we said at the outset, man now desires to know he enquires about the inhabitants of a country, about their history, their antiquities, their art. The fascination of such subjects has led thousands of travellers to Venice, to Florence, and to Rome 5 and they have crossed the Alps with scarcely a suspicion that the most wonderful, the most far-reaching history of all lay written in the rocks of that gigantic mountain-chain. Now, however, the enjoyment of scenery is leading us to ask about the history and the origin of the rocks them selves we see hills of a particular type, and wonder what is the cause of their special outlines we gather specimens as souvenirs, and find that in them we may read some of the most remarkable changes that the country round us has undergone. The term Geology may alarm some people; but everyone can be in his way a geological observer. The British Isles, with their remarkable variety of rocks and fossiliferous deposits, form everywhere a tempting field but it can be asserted with confidence that no county of the three king doms offers so many geological features, displayed with such clearness and picturesqueness, as does the beautiful County of Antrim.

Ireland contains some of the most impressive and unspoilt scenery in western Europe. From the conical white quartzite mountains of Donegal in the north, to the ragged clutching fingers of the Skellig Rocks in the south, the constant changes of light and shade alter these vistas moment by moment. This country was forged on the anvil of time in a way which reflects the constantly changing patterns and configurations in the history of the planet.

Poets, artists, visitors, and all those who love the island of Ireland are inspired by the beauty of its magnificent natural landscape. In this comprehensively illustrated guide to the whole island, Charles Holland, Emeritus Fellow Trinity College, Dublin, and formerly Professor of Geology and Mineralogy, describes this wonderful scenery and places it in its geological context. He explains why the scenery looks as it does, how the land beneath our feet has been formed and why the landscape changes, sometimes dramatically, from lush pasture to mountain and moorland. This book is written for all those who want to understand the fabric of the island's scenery; for those who wonder why Ireland looks as it does; and for those who wish to understand the geological history and the forces that have formed the island.

Illustrating the variety of the Irish landscapes this book explores the landscapes that are linked to rocks and the rocks to history, past and present. For its size there is a great range of rock types and rock ages in the northern third of Ireland.Interspersed with the brief text are sections entitled Mythology and Geology. Here will be found stories of Finn McCool, who of course was a wellknown local giant, the Children of Lir, the tragedy of Finngheal, the speaking horse of Benlaughlin, Câlann's Hound, the sacred waters of the Shannon Pot and more. Then there is Ireland's World Tour which traces the origin of our rocks to distant places before they came together in the emerald isle. Sections headed - Did you know, explains some of the natural wonders like Sligo's coral reefs, the Marble Arch Caves and the equivalent of Death Valley in Co Down. Forces that changed the landscape describes the volcanic past with yet more facts and fiction/mythology. Then the story moves to times when humans arrived on these shores. The Axe Factor is about the Stone Age and how local axes transformed life and the landscape. Prominent Monuments follows the theme of the prehistoric peoples and their stone circles and dolmens. The Era of Buildings takes the reader through to the Middle Ages with castles, crosses and temples. Then it moves on to more modern times and the buildings of the last century. Finally, a chapter called Ancient Resources, Modern Dilemmas. Perhaps most surprising will be how much use has been made of the natural resources, yet the wounds to the landscape have mostly healed. Now another phase of mineral and gas exploration is upon us. New sorts of maps are being developed to meet modern needs, which will include coping with a growing population in a seemingly ever more wasteful and energy inefficient society.
