Reissued in its 1845 second edition, this illustrated work by George Petrie (1790-1866) helped cement his reputation as a founding father of Irish archaeology. Its theories about the origin and uses of Irish round towers have been refined but broadly accepted by modern scholars of ecclesiastical architecture.
