Travelling province by province through Ireland, Manchán outlines the stories most closely associated with each site, focusing on a specific beast or creature from legend and highlighting a magical word or phrase in Irish alongside. Discover the dobharchu or water hound of Achill Island; the enchanted sow Cailcheir of Sligo's Keash Caves; the Burren's ollpheist or great serpent; the Caoranach or hairy worm of Lough Derg; the one-eyed salmon of Ballyshannon; and the man wolves of Ossory, County Kilkenny, amongst many others.
