Back caption reads, "THE BURREN (Great Rock) is a plateau occupying an area of
over one hundred square miles 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 (1,134)
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."
