The Origin And History Of Irish Names Of Places is a comprehensive exploration of the etymology and evolution of Irish place names, written by P. W. Joyce. The book covers the origins of names from prehistoric times to the present day, including the influence of the Celts, Vikings, and Normans on Irish place names. Joyce provides detailed explanations of the linguistic elements that make up Irish place names, such as prefixes, suffixes, and root words.

The book is a valuable resource for those interested in Irish history, language, and culture, as well as for anyone seeking to understand the intricacies of place naming.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
