- Dainty Dress Diaries,

<p>‘dazzling’ Derek Mooney, ‘a fine book … a joy to read’ Dr. Richard Collins</p>

- RTE Radio 1’s Mooney Goes Wild,

<p>lavishly illustrated with marvellous photographs … no matter where you live or visit, Krieger has something of interest to say about the wildlife there … each chapter is a thoughtful exploration and explanation of the natural world that is never far from us, if we only take the time to stop, listen and observe … highly recommended for anyone interested in our natural environment, its preservation and expansion – and that should mean all of us</p>

<p>While very much a photographic odyssey (recently exhibited at Dublin Castle as part of Dublin Book Festival), Krieger’s sublime wildlife and landscape images are accompanied by a fine collection of concise natural history essays</p>

- Hilary White, Sunday Independent,

Author and photographer Carsten Krieger takes us on a journey across Ireland to explore the nature we pass by every day, and that which is buried deep in the bog, high in the mountains and under crashing waves. Discover alpine flowers blooming in the Burren, meet ferocious anemones on our shorelines, and visit the Shannon Dolphins, who have had a place in local legend for centuries. Fly with our ocean birds and experience their ever-more challenging search for food. Hear the dawn chorus in Killarney, surrounded by giant, ancient oaks, and look closely at our hedgerows, home to countless plants and animals. With respect and curiosity, Carsten Krieger lifts the veil on our delicate natural world and the dangers it faces due to human interference. Join him on his journey, in words and dazzling images, across Ireland to explore the wild and wonderful nature that surrounds us.
