The West Limerick Man Who Wrote a Dictionary
Here is my book about T. O'Neill Lane, author of the first English-Irish Dictionary of the 21st century. Previously, Coiscéim had published an Irish language monograph of my M. Phil under the title Focail agus Foclóireacht T. O'Neill Lane, but the PDF which appears here is the entire text of the English language version that I self-published through lulu.com. If ever you decide you need a hard copy, it can be purchased here: https://www.lulu.com/shop/seaghan-mac-an-tsionnaigh/the-west-limerick-man-who-wrote-a-dictionary-t-oneill-lane/paperback/product-1yjvrp28.html

iiIn response to Brian Ó Súilleabháin's letter published in the Irish Times on the 7th of May,
2015: Dinneen called his 1927 dictionary a "new work". It was by no means a "second edition"
of the dictionary published in 1904, the plates of which were destroyed during theDublin fires
of 1916. The 1927 dictionary proved to be almost 600 pages longer than its 1904 predecessor,
yet still around 400 pages short of Lane's Larger English-Irish Dictionary's 1748 pages.
