Synopsis
Founded fifteen centuries ago by the legendary Gaelic king Fergus Mór mac Eirc, Dál Riada was a most unusual ancient kingdom. From the Antrim Glens and Rathlin Island up through Kintyre, Argyll and the Inner Hebrides to the Isle of Skye, it was inhabited by Gaelic seafaring warriors and Viking raiders.
With great skill and boundless courage, they navigated around the many islands and countless miles of treacherous coastline. They fought mighty battles, endured wild ocean storms and met with whirlpools and whales. Their presence still echoes in the old place names, and their stories of strange sea monsters, witches and otherworldly creatures have been passed down through the generations. In this collection, storyteller and folklorist Colin Urwin reimagines a few of the very best.

À propos de l'auteur
COLIN URWIN is a modern-day Seanchaí. He is a folk-singer, songwriter, oral storyteller, and author of a number of folk-tale collections. Steeped for a lifetime in the language, folklore and traditions of his beloved Glens of Antrim, Colin has long been exposed to traditional Irish and Scottish music, song and story. He is most inspired by the people and places, the history and legends, and the sheer, rugged romance of the north-east coast of Ireland. From these he conjures up many of his beautiful ballads, magical rhyming monologues and delicately woven tales of wonder. Colin regularly appears at local storytelling and music events for schools, libraries, a wide range of community and business groups, and at storytelling festivals and conferences all over the world.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Old tales from the ancient kingdom that once encompassed the north-eastern corner of Ireland and the Inner Hebrides. The ancient Kingdom of Dal Riada stretched from County Antrim on the north-east coast of Hibernia up through the Hebrides to the Isle of Skye. Founded by the chieftain Fergus Mor Fergus the Great fifteen centuries ago, Dal Riada was once a mighty sea-faring power. The kingdom was fought over by Gaelic Chieftains and marauding Vikings. At its heart was a monastery built on Iona by St Columba. From here Irish monks spread Christianity throughout Britannia. Generations of ordinary people lived and laughed and loved on a hundred different islands - Rathlin, Islay, Jura, Mull and Skye to name but a few. Their ghosts can still be heard in the stories told of selkies, sea monsters, faeries, ancient battles and heroic deeds. This is the first time that a collection of Dal Riata folklore has been put together. AUTHOR: Colin Urwin is from the Glens of Antrim in Northern Ireland and has been described as a modern-day Seanchai. He is best known as an authentic storyteller throughout Ireland and the UK, and appears at folk and storytelling festivals and conferences all over the world. 30 b/w illustrations The ancient Kingdom of Dal Riata stretched from County Antrim on the northeast coast of Hibernia up through the Hebrides to the Isle of Skye.
