Based on traditional Irish stories dating back over thousands of years, Rosemary Sutcliff retells the tales of Finn and the grey dog, of Dearmid and Grania, of Oisin - Finn's son- and all the other high deeds of the brotherhood of the Fianna.
First Edition; very fascinating story.

Notes
While traveling with Jessica around Boston, July 2010, I stopped in Kennebunkport, ME when I saw a sign for a public library surplus sale. (How could I resist?) This book was found there, with a few others. Great price - great treasure. This was the first time I had ever heard of Rosemary Sutcliffe, and read the book in the evenings for the rest of the time I was on vacation. LOVE this author.
