Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions

James Bonwick (1817-1906), was a teacher, historian and author, who produced many books over his lifetime. Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions was written when the author was 77 years old, and was the culmination of many years of study. In it he covers a wide range of topics and opinions, from scholarly sources to the authors of the Druid Revival. While not going into great depth with any of the topics, his citations provide the reader with a starting point for further study. Which brings us to this new edition of the book, which has been re-edited, and given a new Biblography to replace the author's list of Authorities Cited, which could be vague, obscure, and provided no biblographic details. While this Biblography is by no means complete, it covers a large percentage of the citations, not only from the author's original list, but also from the main text itself which were not included on the list. This new edition is a must for any reader interested in ancient Ireland, ancient religions or the Druids.
