点评:My family and I spent 3 unforgettable hours with Tony Kirby on a walking tour of the Burren National Park in Ireland. Tony is unique. His knowledge of the park’s limestone formations, flora and fauna had us convinced he is a botanist and geologist. His passion for preserving the natural beauty of the landscape had us convinced he is an environmental scientist. His knowledge of Ireland’s history had us convinced he is a history professor. His love of Irish literature, and literature in general, convinced us he is a writer, which in fact he is. And his heartfelt, mesmerizing recital of poetry throughout the tour, helped us all fall in love with the beauty of the Burren and all its wonders. We videotaped some of Tony’s short poetry recitals in those beautiful unique surroundings and we continue to replay it and relive it now that we have returned home to the States. Thank you, Tony, for educating us about the Burren and for touching all of our hearts with your passion for preserving it and the history of the area.
