Kinvara
A Seaport Town on Galway Bay

Caoilte Breatnach

This book is first rate and recommended to all, even those who have never heard of Kinvara.
A unique selection of historical photographs and a splendid compilation of locally sourced information. The photographs, spanning the period 1880 to 1960, reflect the lives of Kinvara's people before huge social and economic changes produced different moulds, imported patterns, new shadows for the same substance. This is a moving book."
