Gaelic titles and forms of address
By William F. K. Marmion
Subjects: Forms of Address, Address, Forms of, Irish language, Nobility, Titles of honor and nobility
Description: This is the first and only book on the subject. 2nd edition of 1997 is more comprehensive. Published by the Irish Genealogical Press of Kansas City, MO, USA. Deals with all aspects of the nobiliary structure of independent Ireland, contrasting with British systems. No monarchist agenda at all, very understandable and complete as deals with all levels of the Gaelic system, and how the inheritors of those titles still exist today though actual rule was long-ago extinguished by conquest. Has been widely referenced by others for, as said, it is the only book on the subject and is based on historic Irish Brehon law.
