Dermot O'Druidne was another of those amazing legendary heroes of old Ireland, who, in battle fury could slay an entire army and have enough oomph left over to challenge a couple of giants. A member of the famous fian of Erin, our young man had both success in battle and triumph in love. Disaster caught up with him in the end, but he had a hero's death. The format of the book is attractive; the illustrations in keeping with the robust aspect of the text. This is for the imaginative lad, possibly lassie.
