Summary
"This Treatise is attributed to Giolla na Naomh Mac Aodhagáin (MacEgan), chief judge of the province of Connacht, who died in battle in 1309 alongside his king Aodh Ó Conchobhair (O{u2019}Conor). It is of special importance as it provides a professional lawyer{u2019}s account of Irish {u2018}Brehon{u2019} law in the period after the Anglo-Norman invasion of 1169."--Back cover.
