Description: This history of Thomond, an ancient Irish kingdom roughly corresponding to County Clare, Ireland, is the product of detailed historical research and exhaustive fieldwork conducted across every one of the county's parishes. The result is an unparalleled survey of the region's history, place names, and significant events—opening with the earliest topographical accounts and concluding with the county's official incorporation into an English shire in 1580. Of particular interest is the information on the area's inhabitants prior to the coming of the English, including the territory's division among the native Irish clans and families—the foremost of whom were the O'Briens and MacNamaras. Also featured are numerous transcriptions of ancient Irish deeds and other contemporary documents. This book is indispensable for historians and genealogists and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Ireland.
