The Introduction (90 pp.) deals with the historical background of the saga, and contains a description of the principal manuscripts used in the critical establishment of the text; certain of these are cited in the present edition, e.g. Lebor na Huidre ( LU), Yellow Book of Lecan (Y), Brit. Mus. Egerton 1782 (Eg.), Stowe 984 (St), Brit. Mus. Additional 18748 (Add.) and Brit. Mus. Egerton 209 (Eg.²), Trin. Coll. H. 1. 13 and H. 2. 17. There is also a complete vocabulary.
