Reviews

"I know of no other work that pulls this sort of material together and groups it by such helpful categories (war, feasting, poetry, religion, women, etc.). I will certainly value it in my library and ... as recommended reading for several of my courses. It will be a nice companion to Freeman's Ireland and the Classical World." Patrick K. Ford, Professor and Chair of Celtic Languages and Literatures, Harvard University
