1.0 out of 5 stars The ogham alphabet almost listed., February 15, 2000
By 
This review is from: Ogham: An Irish Alphabet (Paperback)
Don't buy this book. This pamphlet-length book has a brief introduction and then presents the alphabet, 2 pages per letter. The left of the two facing pages has the "English" representation of the letter with a block print of the Ogham letter as it would appear carved in wood. The right facing page has a block print of the Ogham letter as it would appear carved on rock. The problem is that the book doesn't get the alphabet rigtht: the last three letters have conflicting representations on the facing pages. So if you want to know what the Ogham alphabet is (as I still do), then buy a different book on Ogham.

3.0 out of 5 stars The best you're likely to do, March 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Ogham: An Irish Alphabet (Paperback)
This brief study on the mysterious pre-Roman Ogham script from Ireland comes in an Irish/English language format. The dearth of literature on this ancient writing system makes this so-so account about the best book one is likely to find.
