Kilkenny Folk Tales

Closer to the earth and ancient beliefs than many, the people who inhabit County Kildare have stories to tell of hidden places, heroic deeds and strange encounters. Some are based in traceable historical fact, while others are mythical or from a long established bardic tradition. The pathways through County Kilkenny have born the weight of many feet, warriors, druids, saints, scholars, sportsmen and also rogues and villains. These tales which emerge from a long-forgotten prehistoric past of dolmens and standing stones, through times of wonder, religious fervour and survival in the face of famine and the decimation of war. This book brings together stories which have wandered, lost and alone, down through the ages but are now safe and reclaimed between its covers.
