I also find most nature writing uninteresting, which does not mean I find nature uninteresting. I just have trouble picturing the land the way he describes it and would get a lot more out of a nature documentary. I need to see it, or be there, because that's the way my brain works. Still, there are too many descriptions of rocks and plants and not enough of the people who live on this land. They're there, but they got lost in the landscape. If he were to make this two books, one on land, another on people, it would be much easier to process. I know he's trying to document all of Connemara, but the way this is structured doesn't work.
That said, I think most of this book is beautiful and a great deal of it is engaging, and it is often worth the read.
