Below is a PDF link to the book "A History of Ireland" by Geoffrey Keating, published around 1634 A.D.
Of interest to me is that there is an index of names in the back of the book allowing you to look up Irish surnames, names and places that were familiar in the 1600's and known back then giving a more direct-account of some history that's since been forgotten or lost. .
You can view the PDF: HERE:
A hard copy of the text (which appears to be very lovely) can be purchased online from the Irish Texts Society - here:
