Review:
This classic of anthropological writing covers a group of Gaelic-speaking islanders located off the coast of northern Ireland. Their history and structure is well preserved: this probes their legends, genealogies, and customs while capturing the spirit of the islanders and their lives. A scholarly, yet fun, title results. -- Midwest Book Review
