Neither water nor land and yet both, they were once considered gateways to the otherworld. Bleak and beautiful, they are time capsules that hold a record of history going back thousands of years. They supported Irish life for generations, providing fuel and employment, and are home to flora and fauna found nowhere else.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarsten Krieger, the author and photographer behind \u003ci\u003eWild Ireland\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIreland's Wild Atlantic Way\u003c\/i\u003e and many other titles, celebrates the magic and mystery of our peatlands.
