Expand description
All of the characters of Irish myth receive new life and are presented in vibrant and unique ways. In the pre-Christian era, when warriors fought from chariots while Druids provided the mystical answers to the universe, the Irish believed strongly in the magic that these stories reflect. Plus, by providing introductions to the tales and a comprehensive index, Eickhoff gives insight into the legends that formed the identity of a people.
Prepare to once again enter Randy Lee Eickhoff's Ireland.
