About the Author

James A. Truett, author of the bestselling seven-volume Mystical Moods of Ireland series of photo essays, is a former Associated Press journalist whose work has appeared in most major newspapers and many websites around the world.

He has survived a shooting (his camera took the bullet!), a raging forest wildfire and Los Angeles traffic during his journeys as a sailor, private pilot and adventurer, travelling extensively throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, Ireland and Scotland.

A second-generation Irish immigrant born in Alaska, he retraced the path of his grandmother and settled near the family farm in County Clare more than a decade ago, immersing himself in the inspiring and soul-stirring natural beauty of Ireland.

When not exploring the Irish countryside, he enjoys cooking and introducing his Irish family to international cuisine during family lunches. All have survived so far.

He battles his addiction to news by sharing his inspirational images and Irish blessings on his popular Facebook page at Facebook.com/jamesatruett and Instagram account at Instagram.com/jamesatruett.

    His photography moves me and it effects my emotions. His sayings and proverbs inspire my heart and soul. It’s all about beauty, visual and spirituality. It makes me yearn for Ireland the home of my ancestors.

    We received our copy of "Moods of Ireland" yesterday and we are thrilled. The way James uses his talent to show the many sides of the island we both love so much is awe inspiring. Couple these wonderful captures with Irish proverbs and sayings brings peace to our souls as I'm sure they will do for all who choose to purchase and enjoy.

    Beatiful!! Loved the poetry. Going to get another one to send to my Irish friends from that area (because most of items are exported or sold to tourists, they often can't access them). They are from this area and will love the exquisite photos. I imagine they are already familiar with most of the poetry.

    I purchased this as a birthday gift for my Irish friend and was disappointed in the quality. The paper is not of a fine quality at all . It is a paperback and not something I would have chosen as a special gift had I known in advance that the paper quality was so lacking.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Muy buen libro, me encantaron las fotografías y gran color con que cuentan las imágenes. Felicidades.

    Sin duda, el arte del fotógrafo lo podemos notar desde su perspectiva sobre cómo simboliza a la naturaleza y en especial sobre ese lugar muy especial que es Irlanda, la isla Esmeralda.
