This book gives a text, an English translation, and a commentary on
a medieval verse history of the kings of Ireland and Scotland from
the ninth to the 11th centuries. This study examines the Prophecy
of Berchan as a historical record with much to offer students of
kingship among the Irish and Scots. Biographies of individual
monarchs provided therein present the important events of each ones
career, the length of his reign, and the circumstances of his
death. This study suggests new interpretations of British and Irish
history during the early middle ages.
