Ireland today is the success story of Europe. The contrast between twenty-first-century Ireland and that of the late nineteenth and most of the twentieth century is stark. This collection of
photographs highlights the contrast. Corca Dhuibne is roughly the western half of the Dingle Peninsula and the Blasket Islands. It is world famous for the beauty of its landscape and the
writings of Peig Sayers and Tomas O Criomhthain, amongst many. It is also a Gaehacht or Irish-speaking area. This revised edition of Ceamara Chorca Dhuibhne/West Kerry Camera includes many new
photographs. Captions are also in both English and Irish. They show a place and a people changes immeasurably since the photographs were taken. As the destruction of the past speeds up, they
offer a unique glimpse of far-off days when times were often hard and so different from today in a very special part of Ireland.
