Author Description

Fully illustrated with over 60 pictures. Thomas William Hazen Rolleston wrote "Myths and Legends of the Celtic Race" in 1911 in an attempt to revitalize what he felt was a waning appreciation for the heritage of all Celtic peoples. Perhaps the best representation and description of all the legends, myths and spiritual histories of Ireland, Britain and Wales, this collection includes the stories of Ultonian and Ossianic cycles, the voyage of Maeldum, and the myths and tales of the Cymry (Welsh). Chapters include The Celts In Ancient History, The Religion Of The Celts, The Irish Invasion Myths, The Early Milesian Kings, Tales Of The Ultonian Cycle, Tales Of The Ossianic Cycle, The Voyage Of Maeldun, and Myths And Tales Of The Cymry.
