Hanmer's Chronicle of Ireland is a rare compilation of ancient Irish history. This volume is labled part II -- but since it begins 300 years after The Flood we must assume the first part covered Biblical times, and was more properly concerned with ancient mythology rather than Irish History. In this volume, Hanmer covers Irish history from earliest times to the year 1284. Marleburrough takes up the story from 1285 to 1421, at which point this narrative ends.
