This new paperback edition of Ciarán J. Devlin’s The Making of Medieval Derry features an extensive range of indexes, prepared by Nollaig Ó Muraíle, that did not feature in the hardback edition. The two most important are of personal names and surnames, and of names of places and population-groups. It is a book that is a tale of saints and sinners, of churchmen and warlords, of scholars and craftsmen, of Derry itself as sacred city, as frontier citadel, as royal capital and episcopal see.

Ciaran J. Devlin was educated in Saint Columb’s College, Derry, and in Maynooth University. After his ordination he taught French and Irish in Saint Columb’s. He was appointed parish priest in Badoney Lower, where he served until his retirement, after which he was appointed as diocesan archivist and historian.
