Dictionary of the Irish Language by E.G. Quin

First projected by the Irish Archaeological Society in 1852,
work on the Dictionary of the Irish Language was initiated by
the foremost Irish scholars of the time, John O`Donovan and
Eugene O`Curry. Unfortunately, both were dead by 1862, but
before his dea th O`Donovan had outlined how the Dictionary
should be based on a thorough excerpting of older Irish
manuscripts. The meanings of the words were to be supported by
citations. These directions have been adhered to in the work as
eventually compiled. In 1983 because of difficulty in keeping
the individual fascicles in print and to facilitate handling, a
compact edition was published and has just been reprinted again
in 2007. This contains all 24 parts photographically reduced
into a handsome single volume.
