Somewhere west of Ireland, the mist hides an island that has no right to exist.
For over a thousand years, it has appeared on navigational charts, in the logs of Atlantic explorers, in the oral traditions of Connaught fishing communities, and in the testimony of people who swear they have seen it - dark and definite on the western horizon - before it dissolved back into the sea. It appears once every seven years. It cannot be reached. It cannot be forgotten.
Its name is Hy-Brasil.
Hy-Brasil: The Phantom Island at the Edge of the World is the complete account of one of history's most enduring legends - a place that exists simultaneously as cartographic fact, Celtic mythology, living folklore, and modern mystery. From its earliest appearances on 14th-century European maps to the decoded binary transmission of a 1980 UFO incident that pointed to coordinates west of Ireland, Hy-Brasil has refused every attempt to confine it to the past.
Drawing on Irish mythology, medieval cartography, the great voyage tales of the immrama tradition, and the oral folklore of Ireland's western coast, this book explores the full world of the phantom island - its priest-king and his tower of forbidden knowledge, its supernatural cattle and healing gifts, its seven-year cycle of vanishing and return, and its place among the great lost-land traditions of Atlantic civilization: Avalon, Lyonesse, Atlantis, and the Fortunate Isles.
Some places are too real to be found. Some legends are too persistent to be wrong.
