Munster and the City of Cork. With pencil drawings by Raymond Piper.

London, Pheonix House, 1964. 18 cm x 26 cm. XIV, 354 pages, 120 half-tone illustrations. Original Hardcover with illustrated dustjacket in protective Mylar. Price-clipped dustjacket.

The ancient Irish province of Munster covers Cork, Kerry, Killarney, Clare, Limerick, Waterford and Tipperary; names which draw the modern traveller to Ireland in ever-increasing numbers.
Starting from a central point in each county, Richard Hayward leads the reader on from place to place, always giving clear descriptions of how to get there whether by main road, lane or footpath.
In a light, informative way, the author deals with the history, scenery, geology, and folklore of each area. His warm and friendly style, and his unique knowledge of Ireland, are bred of his deep affection for a country which he has studied continuously and lovingly ever since he was a boy.
