Sir, - Michael O'Brien, of The O'Brien Press, wrote on March 13th regarding biographers of Peadar O'Donnell. He is quite correct in saying that there were two.

He mentions Bucknell University Press - the work in question was by Grattan Freyer and was published in Lewisburg in 1973. Both are included in my Guide to Irish Bibliographical Material (second edition, 1980) which includes two further references to O'Donnell.

Fintan Vallely wrote to you (February 25th) in connection with research on traditional music and dance. My work includes over 130 references to music and dance, and some of the entries should be of interest to him. - Yours, etc.,

Blackrock,
