DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Irish Furniture and Woodcraft examines the development of Irish furniture and woodcraft from prehistoric times to the present day. The story is a fascinating one: the earliest known examples of wrought wood are round-based bowls of willow, poplar and alder which date to 2500 BC, and the earliest piece illustrated in this book is a wooden box dating to about 700 BC, which it is believed was used to hold ornaments. In addition to actual pieces, evidence of early furniture types is also to be found on illuminated manuscripts such as the Book of Kells, and on Irish high crosses, with pieces often depicted in considerable detail. John Teahan examines the changing designs and styles down through the centuries. He focuses particularly on the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when a variety of Irish furniture types were in vogue. The book is beautifully illustrated with a cross-section of spectacular pieces, all testimony to the versatility and expertise of Irish craftworkers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Celtic World is a detailed and comprehensive study of the Celts from the first evidence of them in the archaeological and historical record to the early post-Roman period. The strength of this volume lies in its breadth - it looks at archaeology, language, literature, towns, warfare, rural life, art, religion and myth, trade and industry, political organisations, society and technology. The Celtic World draws together material from all over pagan Celtic Europe and includes contributions from British, European and American scholars. Much of the material is new research which is previously unpublished. The book addresses some important issues - Who were the ancient Celts? Can we speak of them as the first Europeans? In what form does the Celtic identity exist today and how does this relate to the ancient Celts? For anyone interested in the Celts, and for students and academics alike, The Celtic World will be a valuable resource and a fascinating read.
