For almost 20 years, Michael Viney and his wife Ethna have lived on a remote cottage farm on one thorn-edged acre of County Mayo. Turning their backs on metropolitan complexity, consumption and frustration, they went west in search of a self-reliant country life and the freedom to wake up every day in delight with where we were. The culmination of two decades lived close to the land, this book contains 24 of Michael Viney's line drawings of the landscape and creatures of County May.
