The author of those charming river books, SWEET THAMES RUN SOFTLY and COMING DOWN THE WYE, has never written with more ease and grace than in this exploration of the River Lee country in Ireland. The part of Gibbings that is Irish responds eagerly to the Irish tongue, scene and nature of the Lee becomes a perfect subject for him. His exquisite wood engravings are a perfect complement to the text. Source: Goodreads.
