5.0 out of 5 stars Irish Place Names, 25 Oct 2003
By H. W. GOUGH-COOPER "herdsman" (Dunscore, Dumfries, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The correct title of this book is "Irish Place Names" and the authors are the late Deirdre Flanagan, at the time of her death senior lecturer in Celtic Studies at Queen's College Belfast, and her husband, the late Laurence Flanagan. It is a reprint of the first edition published in 1994, with new cover art. Deirdre Flanagan was a highly respected authority on Irish placenames and this is an indispensable guide to them. Highly recommended.
