It is illustrated, printed, edited and published in Ireland. The Poem Being Irish, with a fair knowledge of my surroundings and a great love for West Clare, I decided to write a poem that would enhance people’s knowledge of my native County. The poem consists of twenty-seven quatrains, each saying a little about each place as it travels around the County starting at the River Shannon, to the south, and on to the Flaggy shore, north Clare. I have presented the poem on a map of County Clare with illustrations to match the various places and historical events, depicted in my poem. The poem and illustrations are presented on a parchment 610 by 530.
