A message has recently been circulated on various discussion lists on behalf of Dáibhí Ó Cróinín which gives the impression that, although he is working on a revised edition, publication is not yet a 'done deal'. He feels that it may be helpful if people who would be interested in a new edition were to contact Four Courts Press to enquire about it. Obviously, if they know that there is likely to be a demand, they are more likely to go ahead with the project.

This isn't an attempt to pressure the publisher; merely to ensure that they know there are people out there who will want to buy the product if they take the financial risk of issuing it. I will certainly want one, as I expect will plenty of others. Four Courts can be emailed at
