I was interested in reading this book since my husband has roots in Wales and I have been studying Celtic spirituality for many years. This is a short book to be used as an introduction to Welsh deities. Each chapter is only a page or two. I always love to read about the Celtic Goddesses. They are such strong women leaders. At the end of the book is a pronunciation guide. If you are new to studying Celtic deities, this is a good introduction.
