Editorial Reviews: The history of the Irish is full of exhilarating stories, noble achievements, cliff-hanging dramas, profound tragedies, and indefatigable perseverance - a history Clan Kinsella helped create. Experience this history. Feel the rush of a warrior during battle, the thrill of a noble engaged in a cattle raid, the concern of a famished farmer during spring ploughing, and the comfort of a feasting clan listening to its file on Hallows Eve.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Well researched & written Comment: This book can stand alone as either a history of Ireland, or as a history of the Kinsella Clan. Fortunately for us, it is both. The book takes us from the initial migration of people to the island, through the pre-Christian and Christian times, all the way to the eventual birth of an independent Irish nation. In addition to covering key historical figures from Irish history, it also covers both well known and lesser known Kinsella ancestors, including the infamous King Dermot MacMurrough. I'd recommend this book both for those with an interest in Kinsella history - or a deep interest in Irish history. Customer Rating: Summary: Fine Irish historical geneology Comment: Wonderful handsome volume of early and medieval Irish history and genealogy focusing on Leinster and the Clan Kinsella. Brian Boru and the later Norman invasion of Ireland and Dermot macMurrough are looked at carefully. Not another quick knockoff to make a quick buck this beautiful book had a lot of care in the book production and the footnoted research. This is for the hardcover edition. More Reviews
