Clare Folk Tales

By Ruth Marshall

Book Overview

County Clare has a rich heritage of myths and legends which is uniquely captured in this collection of traditional tales from the county. Discover the tales surrounding the tomb of the sun goddess Grianne in the village that bears her name, the caves where warrior giants are said to sleep, and the strange creatures that were said to inhabit the lakes. In a vivid journey through Clare's varied landscape, from its ancient oak woodlands and rolling planes in the east to its rugged and windswept Atlantic coastline in the west, local storyteller Ruth Marshall takes the reader to places where legend and landscape are inseparably linked.
