A reprint of a lovely collection of beautiful classic Celtic tales, translated from the Gaelic lyrically by Irish historian Patrick Weston Joyce about 150 years ago.
Intensely emotional, and written as if to be told orally or sung out in a forest gathering. They are tales of great journeys, ferocious battles and tragic events. Completely engrossing.
I would object to the cheap, officious font of yester-century, though. Such beautiful words deserve a more respectful font, one that is both easier to read and more reflective of the magnificence of the words.

A lovely collection of celtic mythology tales. It is really engaging and I like it very much.
Unfortunately it was not possible to read it on Kindle as it appears as a scanned copy.
Recommended for all the people that loves fantasy and mythology.
Many thanks to Dover Publications and Netgalley

A thorough presentation of 842 previously unpublished Irish Airs and Songs – a treasure!

About this Item: The Educational Co., Dublin, 1923. Hardcover. Condition: good. 'This little volume is a key that will help to open many locks. It contains a vocabulary of the root words from which Irish place names are most generally formed. It also contains a considerable selection of those names that are best known through the country, and which best exemplify the use of the root words.' [This volume should not be confused with the same author's extensive three-volume work 'The Origin and History of Irish names of Places'].… (meer)
