- Synopsis
- [from the back cover] "It is illegal to leave a cow exposed to wild dogs and pirates. While the ancient Irish poets sang the praises of oak, elm, or spreckled salmon, the Brehons, or lawyer-arbitrators, were scratching down the ancient Irish laws. Although eminently practical, they often seem as whimsical as the Irish themselves are purported to be. Today the laws are appealing as much for their fair-mindedness as for their offbeat humor and naive charm."
