Catalogue of Irish Manuscripts in Cambridge Libraries
This 1986 book gives a detailed account of the manuscripts in Cambridge written wholly or partly in the Irish language and contains a highly informative introduction. This comprehensive, rigorously researched volume will be of value to anyone with an interest in Irish manuscripts and bibliography in general.
The Irish Hand
Presents an anthology and an exemplar of Irish calligraphy over ten centuries. The first part contains full pages chosen from twenty-six of the most famous Irish manuscripts in fine photographic plates, with a commentary which gives an account of the contents and history of each manuscript and notes on the scripts and scribes. The second part examines the evolution of the Irish hand, and, as well as detailed specimens of the scripts described in part one, has some thirty additional examples which trace the tradition of Irish script to our own time.
