A Must For Every Reference Shelf - By: Tira Brandon-Evans, 10 Oct 2003
Peter Berresford Ellis, historian & novelist, who has written so many books including A Dictionary of Irish Mythology, has created a perfectly splendid Dictionary of Celtic Mythology for Oxford University Press. The introduction, alone, is a valuable historical resource & guide to source documents & ancient texts. The Dictionary of Celtic Mythology covers everyone from Abarta to Yspaddaden Pencawr & every place from Aberffraw to Ynys Wair, every magical & wonderful creature from Adhnualll to Ysgithyrwn, & everything from the Ale of Goibhniu to the Welsh Language. The entries are accurate, easy to read & understand. I keep this book beside my computer for easy reference.
