Always a great guide.......2007-06-08
This was the 3rd "Rough Guide" I've used, and in my opinion they are the best resources for travel to new countries. They not only cover the "standard" areas and sites in detail - including a good range of lodging and dining options - but also take you off the beaten track, exposing nice gems not covered in other books.
If you like to really EXPLORE a country, rather than find the next good shopping area or find the most economical place to sleep, this book and ALL of the "Rough Guides" are for you!
Almost Blue.......2007-05-29
I was weaned on the Blue Guides when I first did international travel. I loved the detail about towns and historic sites in those guides along with the suggested tours. The Rough Guide lived up to this standard for me. It provided a good level of detail to enjoy our touring with an organzization of the information that made sense.
Great!.......2007-03-08
This book is wonderful! Full of pictures, text, history, everything you want to know. My mom actually picked it up, started reading it and asked if she could keep it. (She will be getting her own copy shortly). Great book! Very thorough.
The Rough Guide to Ireland 8 (Rough Guide Travel Guides).......2006-11-10
This was a very good guide in most ways, which helped us in our travels. Its a great addition for any trip to Ireland but would also advice purchasing serveral other Ireland guide books to compliment what this one lacked. The one thing all these books lacked was the amazing back roads that made our trip so very much better.
Great Book, especially when traveling in the countryside.......1998-01-14
I used this book during by trip to Ireland last summer. It was extremely helpful when I got out of the cities and was in the countryside. The books directions got me to several sites in County Meath and Donegal that I don't think I would have found without it.
I ended up spending 3 nights in the Trim area which wasn't covered in the other guide books I looked at. Very useful and complete, I highly recommend it.
Customer Reviews:
Not that much detail.......2007-05-29
When I bought this product, other reviews led me to believe this would be a very dtailed map. It's not. We bought the Ordinance Survey Atlas. (65 pages of maps, spiral bound) Even that didn't have the level of detail needed to find some of the more obscure historic markers in the Dingle peninsula for instance. You won't get lost with the Rough Guide map, you won't necessarily be able to find all the sites of interest.
Rough Guide.......2007-01-10
Although I haven't used this map yet for our trip to Ireland it looks like it would be a very good map to have while driving in Ireland.
two sided map.......2007-01-01
The map appears to be durable and has details.
But, the thing that I had difficulty with since only half of the country appears on either surface is there is no contiguous edge.
Trying to get distances (or directions) across the map boundry is needlessly complicated. Coming up from the south to the upper map edge and trying to continue to the north of the country means a)noting the horizontal coordinate at point of interest, b) rotating to the right and c)then looking for your coordinate at your point of crossing which is now at the bottom of the map. Far easier would have been to have the upper surface of the bottom half match up with the lower surface of the top map at the edge. Accessed by rotating top to bottom. Flip back and forth to try alternative routes. Horizontal position doesn't move.
Is this the first map that Rough has ever done?
Disappointed,
EEB
Indispensible!.......2006-12-01
We just returned from a two-week trip to Ireland, and this map was our constant companion. It survived rain, food spills and mud and helped us find our way all around the rural roads. It's the perfect size and scale; manageable, but including all the country roads and even some of the grassy lanes. Individual city steeet maps are not included. Even so, don't go to Ireland without this map!
The Rough Guide to Ireland Map (Rough Guide Country/Region Map).......2006-11-10
This map was a wonderful addition to our trip. It gave enough detail on the back roads of Ireland that allowed us to find the most amazing places. Please us this map for the untraveled roads.
Book Description
INTRODUCTION
A vibrant and compact city, Dublin has a pace and energy quite at odds with the relaxed image of Ireland as a whole. Prosperity generated by the Republic's economic boom has brought fundamental changes to the life of its capital, reversing the tide of emigration and creating a dynamic cultural centre. The ongoing rapidity of transformation is constantly apparent; new exhibitions, chic bars and restaurants and fashionable shops all signify a major shift in Dublin's identity, no longer dominated by the insularity of the past, but increasingly adopting a more global outlook.
The city's emergence from provincialism is, however, only part of the picture. Increases in population have left Dublin bulging at the seams which, of course, brings its problems, not least in terms of the high cost of housing and rents: spend just a couple of days here and you'll come upon inner-city deprivation as bad as any in Europe. Furthermore, the arrival of numbers of refugees and asylum-seekers has challenged perceived notions about Ireland's homogeneity - and not all Dubliners have embraced the concept of multiculturalism.
Dublin's collective spirit has its contradictions, too, with youthful enterprise set against a deeply embedded traditionalism. However, the collision of the old order and the forward-looking younger generations is an essential part of the appeal of this extrovert capital, and, despite their differences, its inhabitants' famous wit and garrulous sociability are a constant feature of Dublin life. In the legendary - and plentiful - bars, the buskers of Grafton Street and the patter of the tour guides who ply the streets with visitors in tow, there's an unmistakable love of banter. The city's considerable literary heritage owes much to this trait, and on either side of the Liffey you'll find reminders of literary personalities who are as intrinsic to Dublin's character as the river itself - from the bronze pavement plaques following the route of Leopold Bloom, hero of James Joyce's Ulysses, to the Oscar Wilde statue striking an insouciant pose in Merrion Square.
Ireland's economic growth during the 1990s has lent new impetus to just about every facet of the capital's cultural life. Historic treasures are being innovatively promoted and displayed, from the new Millennium Wing of the National Gallery to the wealth of decorative arts on show at the Collins Barracks, while the city's social and political history is evoked with flair, both in the abundance of theme-based tours and in the fabric of the city itself. Everywhere in Dublin you'll find evidence of a rich past well worth exploring: exceptional Viking finds excavated at Wood Quay (and now on show in the National Museum); impressive reminders of Anglo-Norman and British imperial power; elegant Georgian streets and squares; and monuments to Ireland's violent struggle for independence from the British. The visual arts are enjoying a higher public profile too, with mouthwatering exhibitions in the city's numerous galleries supplemented by the development of a unique design scene that's characterized by subtlety, experimentation and exploration of Ireland's Celtic past. Throughout the city there's a palpable sense that Dublin's cultural heritage is coming into its own - with striking confidence.
Dublin is, of course, known for its pubs, and for many, sampling the myriad bars and buzzing nightlife is an integral part of visiting the city. There's also plenty of music on offer and, while the capital has nothing to match rural Ireland, there are plenty of traditional music bars as well as an abundance of rock and jazz venues, and a vital and ever-changing club scene. Theatre, too, has long played a part in the city's cultural life - you can catch plays by O'Casey, Synge and Shaw all year round at venues such as the Abbey Theatre, as well as experiencing the vitality of Dublin's continuing dramatic tradition during the annual theatre and fringe festivals.
Customer Reviews:
Best Dublin Guide Yet.......2000-09-26
I have read several guides to Dublin and the Rough Guide is the best by far. It is packed full of information in, and unlike many of the other guides, it includes information on off-the-beaten path destinations and day trips outside of Dublin.
It has lots of practical information that the first-time traveler to Dublin should know, like what buses you can take from the airport, the (new) location of the Dublin Tourist Office, and the costs of public transport.
The style of the Rough Guide is very enjoyable as well. Instead of just a few recommendations for rooms and restaurants, the guide includes many suiting virtually all tastes and budgets.
Highly recommended.

Book Description
INTRODUCTION
France had wood, water and stone. To its early inhabitants these were the essential raw materials, and the land offered them in abundance. Less rich in mineral resources, it proved in time to have scattered deposits of coal, iron ore and bauxite. More important, its mixture of soils, climatic zones and different kinds of landscape provided the basis for a variety of agriculture that has been the mainstay of its economy. In shape a rough hexagon about a thousand kilometres long and the same across, France stretches from the North Sea to the Mediterranean, giving it a blend of northern and southern characteristics that can sometimes disconcert its neighbours. For centuries, the more stolid English have looked across the Channel with alternating envy and disapproval at this unpredictable, seductive country, with its flair for style, its dubious taste for the speculative and theoretical, its alarming penchant for revolutions.
Where does its history begin? Popular tradition long ago fixed on Clovis. It was he who dispatched the last representative of Roman power in Gaul and went on to piece together a Frankish kingdom that had at least the rough outlines of what later became France. But only after five ragged centuries of Merovingian and Carolingian rule do we really begin to see the emergence of modern France. Once the Capetian monarchs have established their sovereignty, we can talk with more assurance about the history of a nation. The Hundred Years' War against England left it drained but intact, and before long it was looking towards Italy for foreign conquests. At the end of the 16th century, after decades of religious civil war, the Bourbon dynasty came to the throne. Within a generation, it had set France on a course of expansion abroad and absolutism at home which led at last to the financial chaos, political exclusion and social inequity that precipitated the Revolution. Napoléon's rapidly acquired empire was as rapidly dismantled, leaving France to weave its way through a chequered century of restoration, revolution, empire and republic towards the cataclysm of 1914. In spite of the trauma of two devastating world wars and bitter colonial troubles, the end of the 20th century saw France in confident mood. Its millennium celebrations, by common consent among the best in the world, reflected a country that was still, as it had been for centuries, at the forefront of European powers.
For those living at the time, it is the political history of a nation that looms largest - the wars, the laws, the governments, the national triumphs and disasters. For those who come after, the perspective changes. In the middle of the bloody horrors of the Seven Years' War, Voltaire published Candide. Its words of provocation still ripple across the world; but who cares now about the victories and defeats that in 1759 seemed so much more important? In truth, the impact of a nation's history often has less to do with battles than with books. Measured in terms of the unspectacular events that create a cultural heritage, the significance of France's history is immense. From the poetry of the troubadours and the architecture of the great medieval cathedrals to the dominant artistic and intellectual movements of the 20th century, France has exercised a cultural influence unrivalled by any other country in Europe. If we look for the forces that shaped our way of thinking today, it is to the writers of the French Enlightenment - to Montesquieu, Diderot, Voltaire, Rousseau and the rest - that we must return, and beyond them to Pascal and Descartes.
The French themselves have rarely been in doubt about their cultural pre-eminence, which is perhaps one reason why, at a time when the west has in general been eager to shelter under America's umbrella and share its culture, France has tended to stand aloof. A healthy suspicion of American influence has marked French policy on a range of issues from its attitude to NATO to its stance on the Middle East, from pursuit of nuclear weapons to protection of the national film industry. France goes its own way. And this irritating, admirable confidence in the superiority of its own arrangements comes ultimately from a pride in its past. No one demonstrated this more clearly than General de Gaulle. France, he explained at the start of his war memoirs, had always seemed to him to have a special destiny: `France could not be France without greatness.' The conviction came to him from his father in a manner that de Gaulle sums up in a single, brief sentence. Quite simply, `Il m'en a découvert l'Histoire' - He revealed to me its History.

Book Description
INTRODUCTION Landscape and people are what bring most visitors to Ireland - the Republic and the North. And once there, few are disappointed by the reality of the stock Irish images: the green, rain-hazed loughs and wild, bluff coastlines, the inspired talent for talk and conversation, the easy pace and rhythms of life. What is perhaps more of a surprise is how much variety this very small land packs into its countryside. The limestone terraces of the stark, eerie Burren seem separated from the fertile farmlands of Tipperary by hundreds rather than tens of miles, and the primitive beauty of the west coast, with its cliffs, coves and strands, seems to belong in another country altogether from the rolling plains of the central cattle-rearing counties. It's a place to explore slowly, roaming through agricultural landscapes scattered with farmhouses, or along the endlessly indented coastline. Spectacular seascapes unfold from rocky headlands, and the crash of the sea against the cliffs and myriad islands is often the only sound. It is perfect if you want space to walk, bike or (with a bit of bravado) swim; if you want to fish, sail, or spend a week on inland waterways. In town, too, the pleasures are unhurried: evenings over a Guinness or two in the snug of a pub, listening to the chat around a blood-orange turf fire. But there is another Ireland growing at a phenomenal pace alongside all of this. The extraordinary economic boom enjoyed by the Republic since the early 1990s has brought growth on an unprecedented scale. A country notoriously blighted by emigration is, at last, drawing people home with the lure of work. The conspicuous new wealth of many makes itself felt in every quarter of Irish life, but most especially in cities like Dublin and Galway where a proliferation of new bars, cafés and restaurants reveals a generation determined to enjoy life to the full. The cosmopolitan flavour of these cities is informed, in part, by the complex array of experiences brought home by returning ex-pats, more familiar with the ways of Melbourne and San Francisco, London and New York, than with those of the Aran Islands. The boom has its downsides - notably, spiralling property prices and the tensions brought about by increased immigration - but as a visitor you'll probably be most struck by the t! remendous energy and palpable sense of confidence in the future, most especially in the young. To act as a backdrop, there's a wealth of history. In every part of the island are traces of a culture established long before the coming of Christianity: sites such as Newgrange in County Meath or the clifftop fortress of Dun Aengus on Inishmore (the biggest of the Aran Islands) are among the most stupendous Neolithic remains in Europe, while in some areas of Sligo almost every hill is capped by an ancient cairn. In the depths of the so-called Dark Ages the Christian communities of Ireland were great centres of learning, and the ruins of Clonmacnois in County Offaly, the Rock of Cashel in Tipperary and a score of other monasteries are evocative of a time when Ireland won its reputation as a land of saints and scholars. Fortifications raised by the chieftains of the Celtic clans and the Anglo-Norman barons bear witness to a period of later turbulence, while the Ascendancy of the Protestant settlers has left its mark in the form of vast mansions and estates. But the richness of Irish culture is not a matter of monuments. Especially in the Irish-speaking Gaeltacht areas, you'll be aware of the strength and continuity of the island's oral and musical traditions. Myth-making is for the Irish people their most ancient and fascinating entertainment. The ancient classics are full of extraordinary stories - Cuchulainn the unbeatable hero in war, Medb the insatiable heroine in bed, or Fionn Mac Cumhaill (Finn Mac Cool) chasing Diarmuid and Gráinne up and down the country - and tall tales, superstition-stirring and "mouthing off" (boasting) play as large a part in day-to-day life as they did in the era of the Tain Bo Cuailngè, Europe's oldest vernacular epic. As a guileless foreigner enquiring about anything from a beautiful lake to a pound of butter, you're ideally placed to trigger the most colourful responses. And the speech of the country - moulded by the rhythms of the ancient tongue - has fired such twentieth-century greats as Yeats,! Joyce and Beckett. Music has always been at the centre of Irish community life. You'll find traditional music sessions all around the touristed coasts and in the cities, too - some of it might be of dubious pedigree, but the Gaeltacht areas, and others, can be counted on to provide authentic renditions. Side by side with the traditional circuit is a strong rock scene, that has spawned Van Morrison, U2, Sinead O'Connor and more recently The Divine Comedy and Jack Lukeman. And ever-present are the balladeers, fathoming and feeding the old Irish dreams of courting, emigrating and striking it lucky; there's hardly a dry eye in the house when the guitars are packed away. The lakes and rivers of Ireland make it an angler's dream, but the sports that raise the greatest enthusiasm amongst the Irish themselves are speedier and more dangerous. Horse racing in Ireland has none of the socially divisive connotations present on the other side of the Irish Sea, and the country has bred some of the world's finest thoroughbreds. While association football is as popular as in most parts of the world now, Gaelic football, sharing elements of soccer and rugby (which itself has its hotbeds, notably in Limerick), still commands a large following. Hurling, the oldest team game played in Ireland, requires the most delicate of ball skills and the sturdiest of bones. No introduction can cope fully with the complexities of Ireland's politics, especially the dramatic changes in Northern Ireland in recent years. However, throughout the guide we have addressed the issues wherever they arise, and in the introduction to the North on p.521 and at the end of the book, in the "Contexts" section, we have included pieces that give a general overview of the current situation. Suffice it to say that, just about everywhere hospitality is as warm as the brochures say, on both sides of the border.

Complete in some areas- incomplete in others........2002-03-26
I have used Rough Guides and similar travel books for years.Information about buses and trains is well researched as are descriptions of youth hostels. That of other accomodations is sparse.A good index is a must in a travel book you carry with you. The index is totally unacceptable.Many important sites are described in detail but are not listed in the index. The maps are good, but it would be frustrating to use this book as a guide while traveling because of the index.
A frank, highly accurate and invaluable guide.......2001-07-26
Don't be put off by some of the less-than-glowing reviews of the Rough Guide to Ireland, for this, the sixth edition, remains without question the best in a long line of books geared to the Eire-bound traveler.
Yours truly has traveled to Ireland for eight of the past nine years, and the Rough Guide has been a consistent and consistently helpful travel companion. The recently updated (May 2001) sixth edition is a candid and comprehensive guide, as it covers all the well-known and little-known aspects of the Irish landscape. What distinguishes the Rough Guide from Fodor's, Frommer's, Let's Go, Lonely Planet, et al., is its writing: frank, literate, hard-to-put-down. This reader has all of the aforementioned guides to Ireland (and more), and it's the Rough Guide that receives the overwhelming bulk of my attention. It's the one guide that I turn to again and again, and the one guide that accompanies me to Ireland.
Beyond it's highly literate style, the Rough Guide is particularly strong in the areas of Irish history, and its relationship to the sites that dot the Irish landscape. In recent years the Rough Guide has increased its emphasis on dining and lodging options (this guide is no longer content with hostels as the only way to go). Indeed, the Rough Guide now caters to a broader geographic. In other words, it's not only for those who want to "rough it." Another noteworthy improvement in recent years is the Rough Guide's expanded index, and, even more noteworthy, is its "Contexts" section, which is a wonderful, most informative 75-page section devoted to numerous things Irish: history, wildlife, books, movies, architecture, and more. The contexts section, come to think of it, may alone be worth the publisher's asking price. As for maps, however, this is one of the Rough Guide's shortcomings. While there are more than 40 (and they are clear and helpful), this dedicated reader would like to see more of a particular region. Three pages of maps for all County Donegal, for example, doesn't do justice to a chapter that runs 45 pages. In the future, it would be helpful to have more detailed maps of, say, southwest Donegal, western Donegal, and the like.
Minor criticisms aside, the Rough Guide's sixth edition is a must-have for the serious traveler to the Emerald Isle. While not nearly as slick as some other guides (i.e., Eyewitness), its depth of subject and highly literate style more than compensates. Perhaps it's the ideal guide for the traveler who intends to return to Ireland again and again.

Out of Date and Innacurate.......2000-01-25
My US-raised Fiance bought this book prior to coming over and living in Ireland and we rediscovered still on his parents' book-shelf on a recent trip over to the States. We'd intended to pass it on to some friends who'll be visiting Ireland for our wedding, but a quick glance through the pages soon convinced us this would be an act of wanton cruelty. A significant proportion of the book's details are out of date, granted sometimes only a couple of years out of date, but Ireland is changing so much that is enough for the info to be seriously misleading. (E.g I found a number of pubs, clubs , restaurants etc listed which no longer exist or have been renamed, renovated and are definitely *not* as described). The section on Northern Ireland is particularly poor, verging on the funny (e.g the ancient sun god Lugh is allegedly a popular political icon) and I genuinely feel sorry for people who're basing their travel plans on this book. On the brighter side though,any hapless visitor trying out the selection of 'useful' Irish phrases listed is certainly going to bring a smile (or indeed tears of semi-hysterical mirth) to Irish eyes...!
