Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great book...
I enjoyed this book, I've had it (and earlier print) for over 10 years now and I continually take a look for reference or just to enjoy browsing the photos! The histories accompanying the photos are comprehensive but concise, and very well written.
The inclusion of floor plans would have gotten the fifth star - I think floor plans tell a lot about a building, especially one that's grown over centuries as these buildings invariably have.

Rating:  - Glorious Castles
Irelands landscapce of beautiful rolling hills and flowing rivers plays in perfectly with the unimaginable Manor houses that it hosts. The 308 pictures in this book show many of the most historic and beautiful homes in Ireland. If the history of architecture intrests you, this is a must buy book.
