James Bonwick (1817-1906), used to be a teacher, historian and creator, who produced many books over his lifetime. Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions used to be written when the creator used to be 77 years old, and used to be the culmination of many years of study. In it he covers quite a lot of topics and opinions, from scholarly sources to the authors of the Druid Revival. At the same time as not going into great depth with any of the topics, his citations give you the reader with a place to begin for further study. Which brings us to this new edition of the book, which has been re-edited, and given a new Biblography to replace the creator’s list of Authorities Cited, which could be vague, difficult to understand, and provided no biblographic details. At the same time as this Biblography is certainly not complete, it covers a large percentage of the citations, not only from the creator’s original list, but also from the main text itself which have been not included on the list. This new edition is a will have to for any reader interested in ancient Ireland, ancient religions or the Druids.
