FREEWHEELING THROUGH IRELAND Travels with My Bicycle

The sixty-four-year-old Enfield bicycles around the west coast of Ireland, chattering about the countryside and the people. His droll comments keep the listener interested as he recites the poetry and prose of Irish writers, reads from his 1939 travel guide, and recounts unusual conversations with both Irish natives and visitors from foreign lands. No matter what the weather, Enfield's cheery narration conveys his special appreciation for bed-and-breakfast hosts with warm fires, hot showers or baths, and wonderful food. Take this book with you when you travel the back roads of Ireland and enjoy a history and culture lesson about County Clare, the lakes of Killarney, and the ruins at Mayo. You'll learn a lot and laugh along the way. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 08]
