Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions

"The author of this work, conscious of the importance of inquiry into ancient faiths, has collected such information upon Irish religions as a lengthened course of general reading has thrown in his way, since it may benefit those who have less leisure or opportunity for research. He is content to state various views, presented in quotations from writers, rather than to put forth any special con­jectures of his own. Examinations of old myths and folklore will often throw light upon current notions of nationalities. "
