Praise for West Cork: A Place Apart
'highlights not only its coastline, but its inland beauty as well ... stunning photographs ... Richard’s many photographs - over 100 - present a visual story throughout the book, complimenting the text wonderfully ... The book is a real treat, as much for those who dream of visiting West Cork, as for those who know it well ... wonderful literary and photographic journey through a very special part of the world.'

'West Cork - A Place Apart is a love story by a gifted writer and a talented photographer about their beloved home of West Cork. They know and savor every nook and cranny of this part of the world, the flora and the fauna and the fables. It's not just a picture book, it's a book with pictures, and what photos they are. Jo Kerrigan is a born storyteller and Richard Mills has a wonderful eye for the landscapes and inhabitants of this little corner of the Emerald Isle, where life seems to proceed at a slower pace and the old spirits still abide. If Brigadoon exists, it is here. If you have a soft spot in your heart for Ireland, this book is a must. Personally, after reading it from cover to cover, I shall use it to make a shopping list of everything I want to experience on my next trip' Amazon.com
