Engagingly written and packed with illustrations, Early Ireland, seeks to introduce the general reader to the riches of Irish prehistory--a span of eight thousand years from the end of the Ice Age to the first centuries of the Christian era. It provides a clear account of the development of Irish society from its beginnings as a postglacial culture of hunters and gatherers, through the glory of its golden age in the second millennium BC, to the technological advances stimulated by the discovery of iron and, in the last centuries BC, the development of a Celtic art style of unrivalled power and individuality.

Excellent resource, has value both as an overview and a research resource.

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

This book provides me with a solid resource in researching for a period piece set mostly in neolithic Ireland. It has the broad scope of information that I need to put things in perspective and enough detail and references to help me get down into the weeds. While I am otherwise limited by not having an academic account with which to peruse learned opinion, this is the next best thing. I have already found it invaluable in pointing me to things I needed to research further. Granted, this is not an afternoon read, but it is better suited to the broader sweep than say Professor O'Kelly's more specifically detailed "Newgrange: Archaeology, Art, & Legend" or Professor Eogan's equally focused "Knowth and the Passage-tombs of Ireland".

Archeological review

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2019

Verified Purchase

When purchasing, I assumed it would be more of a history but it was actually an archeological review of Irish prehistoric evidence and the conclusions we can safely make based upon that evidence. It was not what I was expecting, but it was a fascinating read nonetheless (if you like that sort of thing). It is “dry” and scholarly but rich in data and clearly written.

Fact filled and scholarly

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

Very factual review of the archaeology by a well qualified person. I found it a little dry and not quite what I was looking for. I wanted information about some individual sites. From the cover and description I thought it would be intended for the mass market but it is a bit to scholarly for my needs.

Good overview.

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 1999

It has photographs, maps, etc. on at least every other page. It covers nearly all of the major archeological findings up to the end of the B.C. years. Written in a easily readable style by a person who cares more about the quality of the concrete evidence than making surmises or speculations from it. I would have liked more associations made with what's been found in Britain and the Continent, but it's still a five-star overview.

JR Drause (rwd@cei.net)

an excellent resource...thoroughly enjoyable

Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 1998

This book, by the archaeologist who excavated Newgrange, is an excellent resource for anyone interested in European prehistory. Though subtitled "An Introduction to Irish Prehistory," the book does not shy away from indepth scientific and archaeological evidence, either supporting or refuting conventional theories; thus, the book would be better classified as intermediate to advanced. One would be hard pressed to find a better resource of Irish prehistory.
