Front title reads, "THE BURREN".
Back caption reads,
"THE BURREN (Great Rock) is a plateau occupying a vast area in north
Clare. It rises in the south from the foothills above Killinaboy and Kilfenora,
is bounded on the east by the Gortaclare mountains and is contained in the west
by the Atlantic Ocean. Its highest peak, Slieve Elva overlooks Galway Bay
and the Aran Islands. It is an area of scenic attractions -- wild and lonely
but picturesque -- where the clear light, reflected from the stone-grey hills,
seems to radiate an air of timelessness, which is made more realistic by the
presence of many prehistoric remains that dot the fields and the valleys beneath.
The Burren is of particular interest to archaeologists, botanists, speleologists,
zoologists, ornithologists, etc."
