The book is a translation of an ancient Irish epic poem, the T�����in B������ C������ailnge, which tells the story of the great cattle raid of Cooley. The epic poem is considered one of the most important works of Irish literature, and is said to have been composed in the 7th century AD.Hennessy's translation of the poem is highly regarded for its accuracy and fidelity to the original text. The book includes an introduction by Hennessy, in which he provides historical and literary context for the poem, as well as a glossary of Irish terms and names.The story of the T�����in B������ C������ailnge revolves around the hero C������ Chulainn, who defends his homeland against an invading army from the province of Connacht. The raiders seek to steal the prized bull of Cooley, and C������ Chulainn must fight a series of epic battles to defend it. The story is filled with battles, magic, and intrigue, and is considered a masterpiece of Irish storytelling.Overall, Mesca Ulad: Or The Intoxication Of The Ultonians is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish literature and mythology, and is a valuable contribution to the study of ancient epic poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
