This review is from: Guide to Ogam (Paperback)
In this book, MacMannus attempts to come to provide a work covering a wide range of agreements and disagreement within the academic community relating to the origins and uses of Ogam.
He largely succeeds in this task. In addition to dispelling many popular notions as to the uses and origins of the Ogam, he helps provide the foundation upon which a more accurate picture may eventually form (many aspects of Ogam studies are seemingly intractably tentative at the moment, but I believe there are answers to many of the outstanding questions). I would highly recommend this work to anyone studying Ogam.

This review is from: Guide to Ogam (Paperback)
An excellent introduction to ogham inscriptions and the ogham script. It offers expert advice on aspects of morphology, phonology and dating. With an extensive bibliography and end notes it provides the perfect introduction for anyone interested in this fascinating field. My only hope is that it will be available for reprint in the near future to ensure its continuing accesibility to the widest possible readership.
