Cambridge University Press is proud to announce the release of the Dictionary of Irish Biography. With both a 9-volume print set and a searchable online database, the Dictionary of Irish Biography (DIB) is an essential work for any library serving universities and colleges with Irish history or literature departments.
Over 700 contributors from the world over have written biographies for over 9,700 lives of Irish men and women who made a significant contribution to Ireland and beyond, as well as those born overseas who had noteworthy careers in Ireland. Each entry is cross-referenced to other subjects in the Dictionary, and the entries are as long as 15,000 words for major figures. Historical figures from centuries ago up to national figures from as recently as 2002 are covered.
Prices for the online version begin as low as $800 (average price of $1,500) plus the Amigos discount. Contact Carol Wattenbarger at wattenbarger@amigos.org for more information.
