In proverbs we have almost the last remnant of the ancient oral tradition. Long before printing was invented, wisdom, experience and guidance were passed on from generation in the form of these vivid sayings. Gaelic Ireland, a scoiety of farmers and hunters, with time to fight and to make verses, and with a highly-developed code of behaviour, was naturally rich in proverbs. This beautifully-illustrated book presents a large and varied selection, in Irish and with the English versions.
