Autorenporträt
This delightful collection of over two hundred photographs has been carefully selected to show a Derry that, like the old oak tree, is no longer with us. For some of us, Derry will be a vivid reminder of the landscape, the landmarks, and the people we have known, and for others it will open a door into the past and bring our heritage alive.
