Abstract

M. DILLON 221 territory of historians and archaeologists, but they have reason to be grateful. A book of great importance is Professor Curtis's History of Ireland. It is written for the common reader rather than for scholars, without footnotes or any reference to sources, and controversial points are sometimes merely presented so that one is left without the author's opinion. The early period down to the Norman Invasion is treated summarily, and the same must be said for the nineteenth century and after.

One hopes, however, that Professor Curtis has not said his last word, and that other volumes on special periods, with full reference to sources, will follow this. It would be of great assistance to the writer, if scholars would send their work for inclusion in this report. WELSH STUDIES By T. J.
