'I think this is the most beautiful book I have seen about the hills of Ireland. I've throughly enjoyed reading about the mist and the magic, the timeless nature of the hills, the solitary wanders and those giants that lie on the very edge of Europe. This is a book in a thousand. Buy it, read it, then go west'
-- Cameron McNeish, review, TGO May 2011

'From High Places reveals a primeval mountain landscape that is rich with history, tradition and romance. The stunning images and compelling narrative are more than enough to inspire this reader to get off the couch and start walking! Thank you Adrian Hendroff for opening my eyes to Ireland's hidden treasures'
-- Bernadette McDonald, author, climber, festival director

'For anyone interested in mountain or hill walking in Ireland Adrian Hendroff's book From High places is a must. It is a lovely lovely book and a great production by The History Press Ireland. The photographs are absolutely wonderful. So get the walking boots on'
-- Charlie Bird, RTE


From High Places is a celebration of Ireland's great mountains. A collection of stunning photographic images taken from the trails and summits, this book will transport you from the quartzite giants of Connemara to the wild vistas of Donegal and the towering peaks of Kerry.

Alongside these images, the author describes his unique experiences walking and climbing in Ireland, and presents an absorbing account of the local history, folklore and geology.

Above all, From High Places will inspire the reader to set out and explore Ireland's magnificent mountains for themselves.
