Part of the acclaimed PBS-aired Nature series, Ireland looks at the fascinating natural history of the Emerald Isle, exploring the general topography (carved by glaciers during the Ice Age), various geological structures, and formation of peat bogs, as well as featuring close-up looks at native plants and wildlife (including puffins, salmon, otters, red deer, and stoats). Combining lyrical narration by Jason O'Mara, interviews with scholars and experts, and wonderful folk music, this beautifully-filmed documentary introduces viewers to the myriad ecosystems that exist on the island, while examining the impact of humankind--from Neolithic farmers to present-day dwellers--on the landscape. Highly recommended. Aud: H, C, P. (L. Stevens)
