Résumé
The account of the year in an Irish mountain district, divided into twelve essays, describes the attitudes and characters of some of the people who live there. All his life Michael J. Murphy has lived within sight of Slieve Gullion.… To him it does not represent just a large outcrop of rock, but a way of life. In his opening essay he shows how the personality of a mountain can dominate and influence the lives and living of everyone within its shadow, even the very fields. 1964.
