"These stories, chosen from the hoard of Irish and Welsh legends, tell of the people of Dana, the strange gods of anicient Ireland; Finn and the Fianna, some of the greatest heroes of all legend; and a different King Arthur from Malory's pattern of chivalry. The tales include "The Children of Lir " - one of the Three Sorrows of storytelling; "The voyage of Maeldun" - the pattern for all travellers' tall stories; and "The Bride Price for Olwen", in which Kilhwch has to win countless treasures and accomplish great feats. Barbara Leonie Picard has added notes about the stories and their backgrounds."
