panMOTHER OF PEARL THIS BOOK SUCKED!!!
Gird your loins, because here it comes (complete with rant)...
Half the book isn‘t even about what the whole book claims to be about. The first half of the book is about the “philosopher” in Greece and Rome and what he would have heard about the Gauls from there. There is only one chapter that involved Druids. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
GingerAntics It‘s full of cliches and myths that were debunked in the decade before this was written, making it outdated before it was even published. The entire book boils down to “this is how it was for the pre-Christian Irish, so it must have been similar.” I don‘t get why everyone raved about this book. Even his epilogue wasn‘t what it promised. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 4y
GingerAntics “The Celtic Heritage” turned out to be “Rome never conquered Ireland or Scotland.” Whoopy! I should have stopped reading when he said Julius Caesar was a great source on the Celts and implied it was accurate. Was this book actually written in the 1950s?! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 4y
GingerAntics If you want actual, factual history, look else where. If you need something to help you fall asleep and don‘t care about facts or only making suppositions you can support with sources, this is the book for you. 4y
