Reprint, no date [c1857]. Engraved frontispiece and title. Original crimson cloth, blocked in blind on board with frames incorporating Celtic symbols (shamrock, harp), blocked in gilt on spine. Sunned to brown on spine, light sunning to board edges, inner joint papers lightly cracking but joints tight, Irish bookplate, otherwise a nice tight copy, good. Sadleir [1075] suggests the date for the Duffy imprint. Wolff [2784] notes "Griffin's aim was to go back to a time before there was a single "Saxon" in Ireland; so he chose the 8th century and ran into the Danes."
