This is a collection of writings by Tim Robinson. As well as Setting Foot on the Shores of Connemara, the work includes Place/Person/Book, Robinson's introduction to the Penguin Classics edition of Synge's The Aran Islands. These pieces are written from the perspective of cartography, landscape interpretation, mathematics, art and writing. With the author, the reader explores Connemara, the Burren and Aran Islands, experiencing his initial impression of these islands and his rationale for mapping them in the early 1970s.
