About this book
Adare, whose ruins hold three fortifications set one inside another, is the first castle described in this 1904 collection by Constance Louisa Adams. She says no single volume could hold the histories of every Irish castle, so she chose those of chief interest and added a legend of Kilkea Castle before the main accounts. Land grants usually required the holder to put up a fortified house, and many such places fell out of use once gunpowder arrived. Canon Lucius O'Brien illustrated the book.
