Dear Eneclann customers and friends,

Welcome to the Eneclann newsletter. Apologies to all those readers who were unable to receive our prior messages, and we hope this technical glitch has been resolved on this occassion.

We are delighted to announce the latest publication releases from our Archive CD Books Ireland range. We are publishing six titles this month. These include one of the earliest topographical studies of Ireland, being Pococke's 1752 Tour of Ireland. Continuing our republication of George Bassett's important county directories, this month we release his Directories of Kilkenny (1884) and Louth (1886). We also continue our republication of the Statistical Surveys, this time for County Mayo. This month sees the publication of our first family specific title, The Crofton Memoirs, which contains an extraordinary amount of detail on that family in Connaught. We are also pleased to announce the release of Charles Hanna's 2 volume "The Scotch-Irish, or the Scot in North Britain, North Ireland, and North America". This mammoth work details the settlement of Scots in Ireland and throughout North America since the 1600s. Further details about both titles are given below, with more details on our web site.

All are important additions to our catalogue, and as always are published at an affordable price. To find out more details about our new releases please take a look at our web site, or see full details below:
