Overview

The myths and legends of pre-Christian Ireland overflow with giants and heroes, maidens, battles and brave deeds. The haunting love of Diarmuid and Grania, the epic war fought over the White Bull of Cuailgne, the enchanted world of Tir Nan Og and the boyhood deeds of Cuchulain and Finn Mac Cumhal - these are just a few of the forgettable tales in this superb collection. Translated from Irish by renowned folklorist and writer Lady Gregory, Complete Irish Mythology will give the reader immense pleasure, conjuring up a vanished world of magic, chivalry and song.
