The Book of Celtic Wisdom

The Celts were an ancient race who loved language, yet they had no writing system of their own. Passing their teachings and stories along through an oral tradition, the Celts held the bard and the poet to be the equals of kings. Now in a beautiful edition, here is a collection of the poems, proverbs, triads, and blessings of the Celtic people. As true today as they have been for thousands of years, these timeless jewels of sagacity are a triumph of language itself -- and will continue to enlighten and inspire for generations to come.
