John M Feehan searches out the hidden corners of Donegal, those secluded places where time stands still and where nature speaks its secret language to the human spirit.
Although at times controversial, cutting through sham and pretence wherever he meets it, he writes with great charm, skill and sympathy, and with a deep love of the countryside and its people. He sees the mystery, the beauty and the sense of wonder in ordinary things and brings each situation to life so that the reader feels almost physically present. This is a most delightful travel book of memorable beauty that can be read again and again.
