Book Synopsis Celtic Warrior Descendants by : Ebe Chandler McCabe Jr
Download or read book Celtic Warrior Descendants written by Ebe Chandler McCabe Jr and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celtic Warrior Descendants is a genetic, cultural and political history of an American family. It is typical of the history of many Americans of Scotch-Irish descent, and is applicable to a host of people with many surnames. The book pursues the Celtic history of Ireland and Britain to the Iberian Peninsula, and then to the Middle East and before. It also depicts some significant aspects of our ancestors' world, of Celtic mythology, and of cultural traits passed down by our Celtic and pre-Celtic ancestors. Further, as part of his legacy to his descendants, the author takes issue with some lasting political myths learned during his youth. The book is designed to acquaint the reader with the family's genetic history and with the world and culture of the living family's ancestors. It includes mythic, cultural, and political aspects that extend its applicability to a great number of the descendants of the English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh immigrants who came to America several hundred years ago.

This is the type of tale that you need to read with a light on…I'm serious. You better put your seatbelt on 'cause you're in for one helluva ride. Look out, Hughes might very well be headed to the major leagues after this twisted tale! Highly recommended!"

Book Synopsis Celtic Ireland West of the River Shannon by : Patrick A Lavin
Download or read book Celtic Ireland West of the River Shannon written by Patrick A Lavin and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reader accompanies the early Irish Celts on their cultural journey down the ages and into the province of Connacht, where the story focuses on the early tribal communities - exploring the developing dynastic families, descendants of once "heroic" warrior societies. The earliest noted Celtic inhabitants of Connacht, collectively called Firbolg, were believed to have ruled much of the province until well into the third century, when they were toppled and driven into tributary status by the expansion and dominance of the Gaels from northern Spain. In Connacht, some thirty petty kingdoms came to figure prominently in Irish history and legend. Among them, the Three Tuaths - Kinel Dofa (O'Hanly country), Corca Eachlinn (MacBrennan country) and Tir-Briuin-na-Sionna (O'Beirne country) - are presented as microcosms of what Gaelic tribal life throughout The Middle Ages was like. This book centers on the rise to power of the Connacht dynasts, their constant warring among themselves, their decline brought about by endless conflict with their kinsmen and invading Normans, their final collapse following confiscation of their lands by the English in the seventeenth century, and the resurgence of Celtic culture and the triumphant return of the Irish Gaels as masters of their own destiny.
Book Synopsis Manus the Celtic Warrior by : E. G. Brown
Download or read book Manus the Celtic Warrior written by E. G. Brown and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I knew during the writing of "Valley of the Wolf Warrior" that it was necessary to tell this story. It had been dwelling in my mind for quite some time. The story and saga of this lineage was not complete without the sacrifices of the grandfather who created this family being revealed. This is the father of Aran of the valley, in the Pyrenees Mountains of Northern Spain. His attempt to organize the Celtic tribes into an efficient national entity was essential to survival. He knew this, but many other powerful nations on the realm of expanding into the world scene did also. In 1000 BC the Celtic warriors were the most feared people on the world landscape. They had originated from a people to the east, possibly southern Russia. They spread over Europe as the last ice age melted and dominated every tribe they came across. The efforts of Manus the Celtic Warrior would be terminated by rulers of the world powers of that time out of fear of what the Celtic could possibly become. His failure and death told the wise Celtic leaders of his tribe to immigrate to other lands unless they wanted to be devoured by other organized nations. No one can give a good reason as to what causes a mutation to occur in the male DNA, only science can speculate or guess. But I have always felt that it took some warrior or very special person to cause nature to take a different direction in the path forward into destiny on this earth. The seed of Manus left the mountains of Spain and spread to the edge of the world.

Book Synopsis Cannibals and Kings by : Marvin Harris
Download or read book Cannibals and Kings written by Marvin Harris and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-07-13 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this brilliant and profound study the distinguished American anthropologist Marvin Harris shows how the endless varieties of cultural behavior -- often so puzzling at first glance -- can be explained as adaptations to particular ecological conditions. His aim is to account for the evolution of cultural forms as Darwin accounted for the evolution of biological forms: to show how cultures adopt their characteristic forms in response to changing ecological modes. "[A] magisterial interpretation of the rise and fall of human cultures and societies." -- Robert Lekachman, Washington Post Book World "Its persuasive arguments asserting the primacy of cultural rather than genetic or psychological factors in human life deserve the widest possible audience." -- Gloria Levitas The New Leader "[An] original and...urgent theory about the nature of man and at the reason that human cultures take so many diverse shapes." -- The New Yorker "Lively and controversial." -- I. Bernard Cohen, front page, The New York Times Book Review
