In 451 CE the Council of Chalcedon was called to assert the his translation of the main Irish annalistic text up to 911 is designed to make early Irish history more accessible to students of Irish history. The contents of the text constitutes the principal narrative source for carly Irish history, providing a fascinating insight into the religious, social and political evolution of Ireland and its people during this period. From 431 to 740 this vital source of early Irish history was written on the small island of Iona off the west coast of Scotland. From then it was contained at monastery in the Irish midlands (most probably in Brega). This new two-volume translation is accompanied by a thorough introduction that places the annals of Ireland within a larger historical context. The Chronicle of Ireland is an informative and accessible introduction to the history of ancient Ireland for both students and scholars of Irish history. Built up from various individual writings, The Chronicle of Ireland is a truly unique book and is as important to the history of Ireland as the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles is to the history of Britain.
