There were several families of the name in Ireland, of whom the most powerful and celebrated were seated in the baronies of Keenaght, Tirkeeran, and Coleraine, in the present county of Londonderry; but it would not appear that the ecclesiastic, Whose death is here recorded, was of this sept.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Complete Guide to Ireland's Birds was published in 1993 and quickly established itself as the best and most comprehensive such guide ever produced. It was a best seller. What made it unique was that it covered all species recorded in Ireland to that date, and did so using an original layout including birds in typical poses as well as standard identification plates. It included the most up to date distribution maps and full descriptions of males, females, immatures, voice, diet and preferred habitat of 312 species. It also had brief descriptions of over 100 rare species. All these features are retained in the new edition. The principal changes concern the Irish bird population itself. Some species, such as the Corn Bunting, have become extinct while others, such as the Little Egret, are now well established. There have been falls in both Skylark and Lapwing populations and distribution while Corncrakes are re-establishing a breeding population in areas where they have been extinct for almost forty years. In addition, many species have been seen in Ireland for the first time since 1993. The new edition of the Complete Guide reflects these additional species, thus maintaining its coverage of all species recorded in Ireland to date. This completely updated edition will confirm Dempsey and O'Clery's work as the outstanding guide to Irish birds. The Complete Guide to Ireland's Birds has just won a WorldTwitch Book Award for Best Bird Book - Europe.

Finding Birds in Ireland: The Complete Guide

This is the English translation of the Annals of Ireland by the Four Masters as translated by Connellan. It starts from the year 1507 A.D.. (This is Part Two of the annals. Part One covers the timeline before 1507.). Due to the expense and importance of this work we publish this volume on its own here. This translation of the Annals was the first ever made into English. Includes four color frontispiece, extensive footnotes of genealogical and historical importance. Also included is the large folding map at the rear of the volume, showing the locations of Irish Families on it. The original index to the complete set is also included. Gold stamped cover is decorated with Celtic lettering from the Annals themselves.

The Annals of Ireland: Translated from the Original Irish of the Four Masters, Part 2

Irish Genealogical Foundation

This was the first translation of these annals into English. It was published in 1846, and appears here exactly as the copy in the IGF library, with additions. The time period covered by the Four Masters here is from the 12th to the 17th century, with annotations covering the earliest times in Irish History. This is a two volume set, with color frontis in each, and a large folding map showing the location of families as given in the annals themselves. Celtic lettering is found on specific pages. New IGF map index included in this edition only. There is no comparable work to that of the Four Masters in Irish History and genealogy.

Excerpt from Annals of the Kingdom of Ireland, by the Four Masters, Vol. 4: From the Earliest Period to the Year 1616; Edited From Mss. In the Library of the Royal Irish Academy and of Trinity College, Dublin, With a Translation, and Copious Notes Severely wounded - This entry is given very difi'erently in the Dublin copy of the Annals of Ulster, in which it is entered under the year 1368. This authority states that Turlough Roe was accompanied by twelve horsemen, and makes no allusion whatever to any treachery on the part of the Mac Feoraises. This passage is very badly given by the Four Masters, who ap pear to have patched it up from various annals.

Excerpt from Annals of the Kingdom of Ireland, by the Four Masters, From the Earliest Period to the Year 1616, Vol. 1: Edited From Mss. In the Library of the Royal Irish Academy and of Trinity College, Dublin, With a Translation, and Copious Notes Before concluding these preliminary remarks, it will be necessary to give some account of the antiquaries by whom these Annals were compiled, and who are now known as the four masters, although it is evident they never themselves assumed the name. That title was first given them by Colgan, who explains his reasons for so doing, in the preface to his Acta Sanctorum, to be presently cited; to which we may add, that Quatuor M agistri had been long previously applied by the medical writers of the middle ages to the four masters of the medical sciences, and that this circumstance probably suggested to Colgan the appellation he has given to the compilers of these Annals.
