Anthropologists George and Sharon Gmelch have been studying the itinerant people known as Travellers since their fieldwork in the early 1970s, when they lived among Travellers and went on the road in their own horse-drawn wagon.

Many of these images are included in their new book Irish Travellers. See photos from the book in this trailer:
