An inspiring vision, Manchán Magan's The stories are captivating, the writing charismatic, and the ideas thought-provoking. The Irish Independent praised the book, stating that on the Beara peninsula in West Cork, a temperate rainforest thrives. This is the life's work of Eoghan Daltun, who had a vision to rewild a 73-acre farm he bought in 2009, moving there from Dublin with his family.

An Irish Atlantic Rainforest chronicles that remarkable journey. Part memoir, part environmental treatise, as a wild forest bursts into life before our eyes, we are invited to consider the pressing issues of our time: climate breakdown, ecological collapse, and why our very survival as a species requires that we urgently and radically transform our relationship with nature.

Powerfully descriptive, lovingly told, An Irish Atlantic Rainforest presents an enduring picture of nature's regenerative force and how one Irishman let it happen.
