This book comprises twenty-one lectures, devoted to the annalistic, genealogical, historical, mythological, and ecclesiastical writings of ancient and medieval Ireland. Lectures on the Manuscript Materials of Ancient Irish History made a survey of those sources available to historians, and established the groundwork for the scientific study of Irish history. Over a century later, O'Curry's achievement remains undiminished, as does the usefulness and importance of this book.
