Kinvara by Caoilte Breatnach
A record, in image and word, of a coastal community's social and economic life, its traditions and the changes it has experienced since the late 19th century. The volume includes photographs taken between the 1890s and the 1960s which offer glimpses into an era when Kinarva was a busy port and market town, yet working and living at a slower pace - that of horse carts, sailing boats and manual labour. The explanatory captions which accompany the photographs contain details on folklore, traditions and local history. Quotes and anecdotes capture the wit and humour of the Kinarva people. The book's introduction places the town's development in a wider historical context.| SKU | Unavailable |
