Our Hearts Are in Ireland

For the fourth book in our beloved series devoted to extraordinary lands that spark wonder with their storied histories and rich cultures, we venture to Ireland, a country that has cast its spell upon songwriters, poets, and painters for generations.

Legends suggest a cache of riches rests at the rainbow’s end, but as anyone who visits the Emerald Isle can attest, treasures appear from shore to shore. Enchanted by the country’s stunning natural vistas as well as the nation’s warm hospitality, Victoria presents Our Hearts Are in Ireland, a beautifully bound volume designed to stir the soul, suggest sojourns, and share delectable cuisine to enjoy at home.

From the soaring Cliffs of Moher, we wander grassy knolls and misty moors as well as picturesque villages and thriving urban locales such as Dublin and Cork in “The Land of a Hundred Thousand Welcomes.” Luxurious artisanal wares, including Waterford crystal and fairylike lace capture our fancy in “Celtic Charm,” as do repositories of beauty such as the National Gallery of Ireland and botanic gardens bursting with color.

“Stories in Stones & Mist” highlights the welcoming heart of the Irish people as we indulge in the pampering amenities of landmark hotels that furnish rest for weary bodies, while St. Patrick’s Cathedral offers sanctuary for the soul. Further pages explore the “Noble Heritage” of the land, with glorious castles and grand estates offering a glimpse into the opulent lifestyles of centuries past. Finally, we savor “A Taste of Ireland,” with visits to renowned tearooms and restaurants as well as serve up a wealth of menus and recipes for authentic regional fare.

A hardcover keepsake for the ages, Our Hearts Are in Ireland brings a trove of delights close at hand for all who venture to simply turn the page.
