Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Since the de Paors' classic was published 32 years ago, modern excavation and some spectacular casual finds have added a wealth of new material for the student of early Christian Ireland. This new work is timely and welcome: it begins with an appraisal of the Iron Age legacy, and an examination of Roman influence, continuing with chapters on settlement, economy, technology, art, and the Church. Viking influence is covered briefly in the concluding chapter. Well-illustrated with some old and much new material.' - Warwick Rodwell .
