Larminie took these tales down from Irish-speaking storytellers in the west and translated them closely, keeping the rhythm of the spoken Gaelic. Here are the magic cow called the Gloss Gavlen, the sons of the High-King of Erin, King Mananaun, the Champion of the Red Belt and a wandering Jack, with an introduction on regional differences in Irish folklore.
A valuable early collection for anyone drawn to Irish storytelling in its own voice. Download the free EPUB.
