Price: $10.19
Customer Review:
When I bought this book I thought I had found the Freya Stark of the 21st century, but after reading the first few chapters I realize Rosemary Mahoney was anything but. This is not the adventure that the picture on the cover implies. It's a story of an unprepared American tourist that spoke very... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I remember reading about this book when it first came out. The writer stayed in this small Irish village, interacted with the people, and wrote such a revealing and accurate portrait of it that one or two of the village people who were unhappy with it claimed that she had made it all up Then,... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
In January 2009 Rosemary Mahoney will turn forty-eight years old. She's older, and presumably wiser, but the Mahoney depicted in this book is in contrast a young adult, a much younger version of herself.
