    “Book Descriptions: The ancient legends and ancestral legacy of the Emerald Isle.

    This comprehensive history examines the course of the Irish from 3800 B.C. to the twentieth century. Celtic legends, the evolution of Christianity, the coming of the Vikings, and the time of the Tudors are just some of the topics covered in these pages. Juilene Osborne-McKnight addresses the events leading up to the An Gorta Mor--or the Great Hunger--which initiated the Irish immigration to America. She then follows the Irish as they travel to the new country and establish themselves as Irish-Americans. Accenting each part are whimsical yet complex Celtic drawings and an annotated bibliography of recommended books and movies.”
