Holy Hills and Pagan Places of Ireland by Hector McDonnell

Holy Hills and Pagan Places of Ireland by Hector McDonnell

The Irish landscape is alive with pagan powers, gods, and spirits. Inside every hill are feasting halls of otherworld beings, who sometimes emerge into our dimensions, or entice the unwary into theirs. Lakes and rivers have their own divinities, sacred pagan springs cure everything from toothache to insanity, and gods and goddesses live on in ancient stones.

In this beautifully illustrated book Hector McDonnell describes how Ireland's pre-Christian beliefs still shape Ireland's beliefs and customs.
