Reviews for Wild Ireland: A Nature Journey from Shore to Peak
Nature Lovers! You’re in for a treat … the photography in this is just stunning
Dainty Dress Diaries ‘dazzling’ Derek Mooney, ‘a fine book … a joy to read’ Dr. Richard Collins
RTE Radio 1’s Mooney Goes Wild 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
Tuam Herald 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
Hilary White, Sunday Independent
