“The nineteen authors represent a great assemblage of expertise, and this is a valuable … field guide that will be widely used by colleges and geological groups that are regular visitors to these well-trodden Irish outcrops. … This is a truly excellent piece of work and of great benefit to the armchair traveller as well as the primary target who will use it in the field.” (Nigel T. Monaghan, Irish Naturalists’ Journal, Vol. 39, December, 2022)
