CD-ROM

 |
|
| |
|
has
been developed from this website.
It has almost 2,000 photographs (many more than the website)
of which over 900 are
high-resolution.
Many
of these are larger than on the website (750-900 pixels rather than 600).
It is the most
comprehensive illustrated guide to megalithic Ireland
ever published in any medium.

REVIEWS

"The
layout and interface
are definitely the best of their kind that I've seen -
plus a huge amount of informative text - which is usually where CD-ROMs
fail."
- Neil Mortimer, editor of 3rd Stone archæological
magazine

landscape."

"This CD is not just a copy of the IrishGenius website, but much
more.
Beautifully presented and full of detail I think that it should be on
everybodys shopping list.
The cover image alone makes you want to (1) go and find the stone detailed
and (2) put the CD straight in your computer to find out more.
The
CD is in HTML format and uses the same format and elegant design that
the web site uses,
and the overall quality and presentation are superb.
As
well as covering Irish megalithic sites this CD goes far beyond and provides
information on cross pillars,
ogam stones, bullauns and sweathouses from across Ireland.
For a bigger bonus it also details many little-known French megalithic
sites outside of Brittany
as well as medieval Christian carving.
Do
not, however, think that this CD is spread too thinly because it incorporates
so many subjects:
each one is covered very well.
It
is essential to anyone planning site visits in Ireland."

"The pictures alone would make this worth having.
With the gazetteer, the essays and the hints for your next French holiday
it's definitely a must for your collection."

from happy purchasers:
"Thank you very much for the CD on Megalithic Ireland. It is truly
wonderful!
While it is not the same as being there in person, it is the next best
thing.
Thank you again for all your work and research.
Sincerely,
J-A O'B"

"We have just received the Megalithic
Ireland CD ROM and are absolutely delighted with it.
The pictures old and new are excellent and the narrative is both informative
and interesting.
I have already spent a few hours learing about Court tombs, 'Satan in
the Groin' and Sweathouses
(which I found very intriguing) but still have plenty to explore.
Thank you for a most educational and entertaining product.
Kind Regards
Gill & Mick Neeve"

I received
the CD-ROM today. I started
looking through it, and what an amazing resource! It's so comprehensive.
So thanks for putting it out there. I can't wait to see some of the sites
when I get to Ireland.

I received your "Megalithic
Ireland" CD-ROM today.
I must say it is a WONDERFUL CD:
very well done! It will take me quite a while to study it all:
time to be very much enjoyed and well-spent.
