Well organized, concise and informative. Comprehensive references to published materials are supported by an excellent selection of individual resumes and an extensive index of place and name associations. Although it is fun to read, perhaps the greatest benefit of this book will be realized as an aid in Caomhánach family history study, where it offers ready facts and sources.

What an extraordinary gift Jimmy Kavanagh has given us "Caomhanachs" with the publication of his exhaustively researched and brilliantly organized compilation of facts and features associated with the family name.
