Mesca Ulad: Or The Intoxication Of The Ultonians is a book written by William Maunsell Hennessy and published in 1889. The book is a translation of an ancient Irish text, which tells the story of a great feast held by the Ultonians, a legendary tribe in ancient Ireland. At the feast, the Ultonians drink a magical potion that causes them to become intoxicated and engage in wild and violent behavior. The story is a mix of comedy and tragedy, with elements of romance and adventure. It is considered an important work of Irish literature, and the translation by Hennessy is highly regarded for its accuracy and readability. The book also includes an introduction by Hennessy, providing historical and cultural context for the story. Overall, Mesca Ulad is a fascinating glimpse into ancient Irish mythology and storytelling.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
