4.9/5 (18969 ratings)

Description:At midnight on May 7th, 1988, the church bells signalled the start of a new day in the life of Ireland. It was to be a day unlike any other. In the course of it, thousands of men, women, and children photographed whatever seemed to them to capture best the essence of Ireland in the pattern of their lives.This, the largest photographic event Ireland has ever seen, was the flagship to highlight a programme of events organised by the Irish Cancer Society in celebration of their first twenty-five years. The photographs, sorted into geographic areas, were submitted to a distinguished panel of judges, who selected the best and most evocative entries for publication in this book.Complete with a celebrity contribution to open and close each of the five time-zone chapters, and a chapter on the Dublin Millennium, One Day for Life in Ireland presents the image of a nation in all its moods. Far from being a showcase for the professional photographer, the book is unique not only for the range and impact of the photographs chosen, but also for the fact that they represent the creation — and character — of ordinary people everywhere. One Day for Life in Ireland celebrates the moment in Ireland's history when a whole nation, inspired by the wish to help one of the most worthwhile of all causes, set out to record the richness and variety of its everyday life.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
